We said: Bristol Rovers 2-1 Blackpool

While Blackpool are carrying slightly better league form into this match, it is hard to ignore Britol's home record this season. The Pirates have only been beaten once at the Memorial Stadium in 11 matches and are unbeaten in their last nine, including five wins. We fancy them to claim another home victory in this one.
