Accrington
In-form Doncaster Rovers will be aiming to extend their winning run to eight games when they take on Accrington Town in the League Two round 44. The Donny are only four points behind the playoffs berth, meaning that they face yet another must-win game against the Accy Stanley. Joe Ironside should keep his place in the starting XI after getting his name on the scoresheet in the midweek triumph over Walsall.
John Doolan’s are stuck in the middle of the table, with the team heading into the season finale with the lack of motivation. Given Doncaster’s brilliant form in the English fourth tier, home win should definitely be considered. It has to be noted that Accrington have already suffered ten defeats on the road this term. Joe Pritchard is widely expected to return to Accrington’s starting XI after scoring as a substitute in the triumph over Newport County.
Highlighted Player (Tom Anderson):
Known for his heading and no-nonsense defending, the 1.92 m tall center back, is an English footballer who plays for Doncaster Rovers in the third tier of English Football. Anderson was born in Burnley, on the 2nd of September, 1993. He joined Burnley's youth academy at the age of seven and went on to sign his first professional contract with the club in May 2012. The club then sent him out on loan to Conference Premier Club Barrow, where he made his first professional appearance on the 11th of August,2011, in a 0-0 draw against Telford United.
A further string of loans to Conference clubs Hyde, Halifax, and Lincoln City, League Two club Carlisle and League One club Chesterfield, succeeded his time at Harrow. On the 31st of January, 2018, Anderson joined his current club Doncaster Rovers initially on a year's loan before signing a two-year contract with the club in May.
This permanent switch ended his 18 years-long relationship with parent club Burnley during which, he never once made an appearance for the senior team. On the International front, the 26-year-old has never represented his country at any level.
