In a weekend match in week 21, on Sat Dec 10th, Forest Green Rovers will host Cheltenham Town at The New Lawn in a clash of these two closely matched League One teams. In their last match, Forest Green Rovers recorded a 2-1 win against Cambridge United. Josh March struck first for Forest Green Rovers in the 37th minute, then Saikou Janneh got the equalizer for Cambridge United in the 89th minute on a feed from Sam Smith. Forest Green Rovers looks to improve on their recent performance, having lost 5 of their last 10, while 16th placed Cheltenham Town is fresh off their 1-0 shutout win against Charlton Athletic. Alfie May struck first for Cheltenham Town in the 84th minute, and that single goal was all that was necessary as neither team could manage any more scoring In the end, Charlton Athletic couldn’t muster any offence and Cheltenham Town ran away with the shutout win. With 17 points in their last 10 matches Cheltenham Town should be reasonably happy with their performance.
These two teams have not yet played each other this season.
Cheltenham Town’s most prolific scorer has been Alfie May. The English midfielder has netted two goals over the last five matches. Forest Green Rovers is glad to have Connor Wickham in top form. In the last 5 matches the attacker has scored 4 goals.
