Our prediction for this League 2 match:
Doncaster will look to recover from a 3-1 loss to Newport County when they take on Morecambe on Matchday 3. The Donny have a chance to climb to the playoffs berth and we are positive that they will adopt an attack-minded approach in Saturday’s encounter. Despite struggling to open his goal-scoring account, Joe Ironside will continue leading the line for the hosts. There are no fresh injury worries in Grant McCann’s team.
The Shrimps, on the other hand, made a slow start to the season, with the team losing to both Walsall and Gillingham in the first two league games. As Morecambe have yet to find the net in the new League Two campaign, we believe that gamblers worldwide can find value in betting on the home side. In their last meeting in the English fourth tier Doncaster crushed Morecambe 3-0. There are no fresh injury worries in the away team.
