Burton Albion look to bounce back after a heavy 3–0 defeat at Plymouth, but their recent form has been inconsistent. Therefore, we predict a 2-1 win over Doncaster. At home, the Brewers are slightly better, averaging 1.40 PPG and conceding 1.40 goals per game, though they have failed to score in 60% of recent matches. Their expected goals (xG) of 1.32 suggests they create chances, but struggle to convert consistently.
Doncaster Rovers have endured a poor run of results themselves, sitting on 1.10 PPG and losing four of their last five games. Their attack is lively, averaging 3.60 goals per game combined, and they boast a 70% BTTS rate, indicating both sides are likely to find the net. Away, the Donny concede 2.00 goals per game, highlighting defensive vulnerabilities. Historically, their head-to-head record is tight: Burton have 3 wins to Doncaster’s 4, with 5 draws in 12 meetings.
Considering recent high-scoring encounters and BTTS trends, both Over 2.5 goals and Both Teams to Score markets seem appealing, alongside Doncaster to win as they are more clinical in finishing than Burton.
This League 1 match will be played on Saturday 10 January 2026 at 15:00.
