History of the Cheltenham Town v Boston United fixture

Cheltenham T. prepare to entertain Boston United at Whaddon Road on Saturday afternoon, aiming to preserve their record of never having lost at home to the visitors. The majority of those games have been won by the Robins.

The most recent encounter between these two sides at Whaddon Road was less than a year ago, in August 2004, the Robins carving out a narrow 1-0 victory in a League Two match.
