Rovers Match Odds Suggest Victory

The latest Bristol Rovers odds are -132 which leads to them being favourites in this League Two clash. It’s also implied by the bookmakers that they have a 57% prospect of securing a victory. Newport County are trading at a bigger price than their opponents and the outsiders can be backed at +330.
