Match Preview

After a difficult November, Rovers will be looking to turn around their fortunes in the upcoming festive period. It all starts with a short trip to second-placed Bedford Town, before games against Thame, Kidlington and St Neots before the New Year.

Kempston welcomed back Tre Charles to action on Saturday after recovering from Covid, however Harry Stratton, Adam Drakulic, Emmanuel Dahie, Brian Testolin and Ben Baker were still out through injury, and Carl Knox with suspension; Knox will be out of this match as he serves the last of his suspended matches.

Bedford have had an impressive start to the season, losing just three of their sixteen league games so far this campaign. Rovers have played Bedford in the previous five seasons since our promotion from the UCL, Bedford having the majority of the wins but Rovers coming out on top a few times, Luke Heneghan, Danny Watson and Shane Bush grabbing winners over the years.

Fans are recommended to buy tickets in advance for this fixture, which will save money ahead if buying on the gate. Please head to https://bedfordtownfc.ktckts.com/.
