Bristol Rvs. play host to Milton Keynes Dons at Memorial Stadium on Saturday afternoon, aiming to preserve their record of never having lost at home to the visitors. The Pirates have drawn both of the previous games against their opponents, however.
The last time the two teams met at Bristol Rvs. was amazingly over twenty years ago, in March 1984, where the two sides shared the spoils courtesy of a 1-1 final scoreline in a Third Division match.
