History of the Forest Green Rovers v Exeter City fixture

Exeter City face a trip to Forest Green Rovers at The Lawn on Tuesday evening, and will hope to continue their unbeaten record at the ground. Out of their two previous meetings, the Grecians have won one, and drawn the other.

The most recent encounter between these two sides was just last season, in September 2003, as the visitors ran out cosy 2 - 5 winners in a Conference match.

Recent respective form guides

Forest Green Rovers's dreadful home form has resulted in just 1 victory and 1 draw from their last six played. While Rovers have scored 7, a worringly large 17 have been leaked at the other end.

Exeter City's away form is none too clever either, seeing them win just 1 and draw 2 of the last six. The Grecians's have scored 10 goals in these games, but conceded an alarming 12.

Forest Green find themselves stuck right at the bottom of the division. Their 8 games have yielded only 1 points. Exeter City's 12 points from 8 games sees them lie inside the top half of the table, in 9th position.
