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. Half of the previous meetings have ended in a win, and the other half in a draw for Grecians.

The most recent encounter between these two sides was less than a year ago, in April 2006, when they played out a goalless draw in a Conference match.
