Yeovil Town v Bristol Rovers: Glovers look for a double


YEOVIL Town will be hoping to complete a Coca-Cola League One double over their West Country rivals at Huish Park tomorrow.

The Glovers enjoyed a 2-1 victory over Bristol Rovers at the Memorial Stadium back in October – a game most remembered for the fact that Yeovil defender Terrell Forbes scored his first-ever senior goal in the game.

So while Yeovil will be hoping to make it six points against Rovers this season, visiting manager Paul Trollope is hoping his side can make amends.

Trollope, speaking to Rovers’ official website, said: “"The game in October was a frustrating afternoon. We felt we deserved to win the game, but unfortunately on the day our defending of set pieces was abysmal.”

Rovers go into tomorrow’s game on the back of a 1-0 defeat at Exeter City where defending at a set piece cost them dear again.

"We have worked long and hard on set pieces and it has not raised it's head many times, except for at Exeter on Wednesday night,” added Trollope.
