Prediction: 1-1
Newport County
After failing to impress in a 3-1 loss to Harrogate, Doncaster will look to give fans some cheer when they face Newport County in the League Two round 28. The Donny are safe for now, but they surely want to return to winning ways in the League Two as soon as possible. Talented defender Thomas Nixon should be recalled to the starting XI after coming as a substitute in the defeat to Harrogate, while Tavonga Kuleya has joing Gainsborough on loan.
The Exiles, on the other hand, head into the match following back-to-back draws with Crewe and Sutton. Newport County and Doncaster Rovers seem to be evenly matched at the moment and, taking everything into account, punters from all around the globe can find value in betting on draw. There are no fresh injury worries in the away team ahead of the trip to South Yorkshire.
