Goal Statistics

Birmingham City have been steady in front of goal of late, finding the net in 6 consecutive League One outings. Their PG of 1.7 against Bristol Rovers on Saturday suggests they're likely to extend that run.

A truly awful PG of just 0.9 should cause concerns for Bristol Rovers fans, as should a 8 League One matches run in which they have failed to score more than 1 goal.
