Recent respective form guides

Forest Green Rovers's poor home run has seen them win just 1 and draw 2 of the last six. While Rovers have scored 8, a worringly large 12 have been leaked at the other end.

Burton's away form is none too clever either, picking up two good wins, but losing three, from the last six. While the Brewers have hit 9 goals, 12 have hit the back of the wrong net.

Forest Green find themselves struggling down in 16th position in the league having picked up 13 points from their 13 matches. Burton find themselves struggling down in 15th position in the league having picked up 15 points from their 13 matches.
