Our prediction for this League 2 match:
Doncaster Rovers play host to Forest Green at their Eco-Power Stadium in the League Two round 40. The Dons aim to build on back-to-back wins over Crewe Alexandra and Swindon Town and they are surely capable of matching the relegation strugglers on home soil. A man to keep an eye on in the home team will be Hakeeb Adelakun, who has found his goal-scoring touch.
The Green Army, on the other hand, are desperate to escape the relegation zone, but given their under-par performance in a 1-0 loss to rock-bottom Sutton, home win should definitely be considered. It has to be noted that Forest Green had only six goal attempts in the last league match. When the two teams met at The New Lawn earlier this season Doncaster Rovers defeated Forest Green 2-1 and we predict that history is going to repeat itself.
Highlighted Team (Doncaster):
