Prediction: 1-1
Doncaster
Buoyed by a 3-2 win over Cheltenham, Swindon Town will look to keep on climbing the standings when they take on Doncaster Rovers on Saturday afternoon. The Robins did well to put an end to their four-game winless run and, no doubt, the triumph gave them a confidence boost. A man to keep an eye on in the home team will be left wing-back George Cox, who produced a brilliant performance in the last league match.
The Donny, on the other hand, are seen as one of the main candidates for promotion. Doncaster aim to overtake Port Vale in top position and given their attacking potential, we predict that both sides are going to find the net in Saturday’s encounter. Talented Donny midfielder Kyle Hurst should start off the bench once again despite scoring as a substitute in a 1-1 draw with Crewe Alexandra.
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.

Oxford United are considered the team’s main rivals, but the Robins have rivalries with Bristol City, Bristol Rovers, and Reading as well.
