Forest Green play host to Bath City at The Lawn on Saturday afternoon, aiming to preserve their record of never having lost at home to the visitors. The Rovers have drawn both of the previous games against their opponents, however.
The last time the two teams met at Forest Green was back in October 2000, over five years ago, with Forest Green running out comfortable 3-1 winners in a F.A. Cup match.
