History of the Crawley Town v Forest Green Rovers fixture

Forest Green face a trip to Crawley Town at Broadfield Stadium on Tuesday evening, looking to break their duck against the hosts. Most of the previous meetings have ended up in defeat for the Rovers.

The most recent encounter between these two sides was less than a year ago, in October 2008, where the two teams cancelled each other out in an enthralling 2 - 2 draw in a (Conference) Premier match.
