Mansfield
Buoyed by a 3-0 win over Morecambe, Mansfield Town will look to give fans yet another reason to celebrate when they take on Doncaster Rovers in the League Two round 3. The Yellows looked sharp in front of goal against the Shrimps and they are likely to stick to their attacking style of play in the midweek clash. Callum MacDonald serves the last of his three-game ban, meaning that Jordan Bowery should keep his place in the starting XI. A man to watch in the away team will be Lucas Akins, who scored a brace in the last league match.
The Donny’s defence, on the other hand, seems to be pretty shaky and given their poor defensive display in a 4-0 loss to Newport County, away triumph should definitely be considered. Both Bailey and Maxwell are likely to drop to the bench following their under par performances against the Exiles, with Ironside and Anderson pushing for recalls to the starting line-up.
