Burton Albion travel to take on Cheltenham Town at Whaddon Road on Tuesday evening, hoping to improve upon an average previous return from this fixture. Of the 5 games played, Brewers have recorded 1 wins, and Cheltenham T. have come away with 2 victories.
The last time the two teams met at Cheltenham T. was more than a decade ago, in March 1997, when they fought out a thrilling high-scoring 3 - 3 draw in a (Southern) Premier match.

Recent respective form guides
Cheltenham Town's dreadful home form has resulted in just 1 victory and 1 draw from their last six played. While Robins have scored 9, a worringly large 14 have been leaked at the other end.
Burton Albion's away form is none too clever either, seeing them win just 1 and draw 2 of the last six. While the Brewers have hit 8 goals, 11 have hit the back of the wrong net.
Cheltenham T. are hovering perilously just above the relegation zone, with 26 points from 27 matches. Burton Albion's 40 points from 28 games sees them lie inside the top half of the table, in 12th position.
