Our prediction for this League 1 match:
Shrewsbury Town and Doncaster Rovers face each other at Greenhous Meadow on Matchday 42. The Shrews aim to bounce back from a 4-1 loss to Oxford United, but seeing that they are ten points clear of the relegation zone, the hosts should be happy with one point from the match. The Donny, on the other hand, have been totally out of form in the season finale, with the team losing each of their previous four league fixtures.
Doncaster are low on confidence ahead of Saturday’s clash, and seeing that they have absolutely nothing to play for in the remainder of the season, we are tempted to put our money on Shrewsbury Town. You should bear in mind that the Shrews emerged triumphant in each of their previous two meetings with Doncaster at Greenhous Meadow, which is yet another reason why home win should be considered.
