History of the Salisbury City v Forest Green Rovers fixture

Forest Green face a trip to Salisbury City at The Raymond McEnhill Stadium on Tuesday evening, and will hope to continue their unbeaten record at the ground. Most of the previous games have been drawn, but the remainder have resulted in a win for Rovers.

The most recent encounter between these two sides was just last season, in January 2009, where the two teams cancelled each other out in an enthralling 2 - 2 draw in a (Conference) Premier match.
