History of the Yeovil Town v Bristol Rovers fixture

Bristol Rvs. face a trip to Yeovil Town at Huish Park on Saturday afternoon, looking to break their duck against the hosts. Half the previous contests have ended with a drawn game, but unfortunately the other half have ended in a defeat for the Pirates.

The most recent encounter between these two sides was just last season, in September 2008, where the two teams cancelled each other out in an enthralling 2 - 2 draw in a League One match.
