Our prediction for this League 2 match:
Doncaster welcome Tranmere to their Eco-Power Stadium on day 21 of the new League Two campaign. The Donny want to bounce back from a 1-0 loss to AFC Wimbledon and this seems like a nice opportunity for Grant McCann’s troops to get back on course. Defender Joseph Olowu is a major doubt after limping off with injury at the weekend, with Jordan Gibson being in line for a recall to the starting XI.
The Rovers, on the other hand, have been struggling on the travels of late. As Tranmere are on a four-game losing run on the road, we do not believe that they are capable of spoiling Doncaster’s party at Eco-Power Stadium. You should know that Doncaster have defeated Tranmere in each of their last three meetings in the League Two. There are no fresh injury concerns in the away team ahead of the trip to South Yorkshire.
Highlighted Team (Doncaster):
Based in Doncaster, South Yorkshire, Doncaster Rovers are an English football club that compete in the League One. Keepmoat Stadium is the club’s home ground. The venue was opened on August 3, 2007 and it can hold up to 15,231 spectators.
Doncaster Rovers footballers wear white shirts with red stripes and white shorts when playing on home soil, whereas the club’s away colours are dark blue and red. Speaking of the Rovers’ history, the club was established back in 1879 by Alber Jenkins, who worked as a fitter at Doncaster’s Great Northern Railway.
Doncaster Rovers shared the spoils with Rawmarsh in their first ever game. The likes of Rotherham United, Barnsley, Grimsby Town and Scuntorpe United are considered the club’s main rivals. Over the years Doncaster fans have developed a rivalry with Plymout Argule as there have been fireworks in their games. Donny Dog, that wears a red and white jersey, is the club’s mascot.
