The Reds entered the first break of the campaign, an extended three-week interval, on a positive note as they ran out 1-0 winners on Friday evening. Dom Ballard's first-half header proved to be the difference between the two sides at Ashton Gate.

On only his third start of the campaign, the summer signing scored his first goal in front of the BS3 crowd near the half-hour mark. Ballard found the bottom right corner with a flicked header that guided Rio Cardines' cross beyond Federico Ravaglia.
