Shrewsbury – Bristol Rovers preview: latest form, news, and potential lineups

Read all of the latest injury updates and team news for this duel, including our predicted Shrewsbury vs Bristol Rovers lineups.

Shrewsbury

Shrewsbury have been very unpredictable so far. They mixed 3 wins with 3 defeats in the first 6 rounds. Last time around the Shrews were poor on their visit to Carlisle and deservedly lost 0-2. 

Defensively things had been decent enough but going forward Shrewsbury simply don’t create enough. Only 2 other teams in the division have created fewer big chances from open play than Shrewsbury. 

Have new options up front after adding Mata and Phillips to the squad. Both are likely to start on the bench for now though. 

Veteran Bennett could be making his first start on the left flank as the two main options for that position Nurse and Shipley are out injured right now. 

Predicted Lineup:

Marosi (GK), Feeney, Anderson, Dunkley, Winchester, Kenneh, Perry, Bayliss, Bennett, Bowman & Udoh

Bristol Rovers

Bristol Rovers were fortunate to save a 1-1 home draw vs Lincoln in their last game. Grant came off the bench to score the equaliser deep in stoppage time. The general display was once again poor. 

Only 1 win in the opening 6 rounds. The main reason for that has been the unconvincing forward actions. Scored more than 1 goal in only 1 of those 6 matches. 

Still missing their star playmaker Rossiter. In his absence recently signed Woods could be trusted from the off. At least, there are no other major injury issues. 

Predicted Lineup: 

Cox (GK), Hunt, Wilson, Crama, Friend, Bogarde, Finley, Woods, Thomas, Collins & Brown

​Starting Lineups

The teams usually announce their starting lineups one hour before the start of the game.

Player to Watch: Cheyenne Dunkley

Shrewsbury’s captain Cheyenne Dunkley is vital for his team. He is not only the best centre-back in the squad but also an extremely dangerous player when he joins the attack for set pieces. Dunkley already scored a crucial winning goal once this season. He had 7 goals last term. 

With Shrewsbury struggling in attack the importance of the set pieces becomes even greater and we can see every cross from such a situation targeting Dunkley. Knowing the striker’s ability to dominate in the air we can see him producing another vital contribution for his team.
