Forest Green prepare to entertain Accrington Stanley at The Lawn on Friday evening, aiming to preserve their record of never having lost at home to the visitors. The Rovers have drawn both of the previous games against their opponents, however.
The most recent encounter between these two sides at The Lawn was just last season, in December 2004, the Rovers carving out a narrow 1-0 victory in a Conference match.

FootyMad's prediction ...
Nothing seems to be going right for the Rovers at home recently, and I can see no immediate turn around in fortunes as the Stanley come away with an easy victory. Away win
