Fan favourite Grant McCann has since returned to the club as manager for a second spell, having led the club to the League One Play-Off places in 2019 before leaving to take over at Hull City. McCann guided the Tigers to the League One title during his time there before a second spell in charge at Peterborough United last season, and his return to the Keepmoat was seen as a real coup for the Yorkshire side. Investment into the side was promised over the close season with 13 new additions brought in. The big change has been up front, with former Cambridge United striker Joe Ironside forming an effective partnership with West Brom loanee Modou Faal. The pair have seven goals between them already this season, and were both on target in that win against Crawley Town on Tuesday night.
Despite being tipped by many to be dark horses for promotion this season, Doncaster instead found themselves rooted to the bottom of the table in the opening few weeks of the campaign after picking up just two points from their opening seven games. There was a sense, however, that the performances were better than the results they had to show for it over that period, particularly in battling defeats away at Wrexham and MK Dons. Antoni Sarcevic has been in sensational form for County so far this season.
County haven’t won six on the bounce in the EFL since the back end of the 2007/08 season, en-route to promotion from League Two via the play-offs under Jim Gannon. Only goals scored currently keeps County out of the automatic promotion places with Crewe currently sat in third, and three points on Saturday could even see Dave Challinor’s side finish the day top of the pile should other results go our way.

Click here to buy a pass today! Our Opponents: After relegation from League One in 2022, Doncaster will have been hoping for better last season in what was their first League Two campaign since 2017. Despite a bright start under former County loanee Gary McSheffrey, their form faded badly in September and October; a run of just seven points picked up from eight games seeing the 40-year-old sacked 14 games into the campaign, with Rovers in 12th place.
Former Huddersfield Town boss Danny Schofield, another former County loan player, was chosen as his replacement, tasked with bringing his home-town club closer to the promotion places. Tanto Olaofe forms half of one of the most lethal strike partnerships in League Two, notching six goals in his last six games. Things were looking promising in February; three straight wins against Tranmere, Swindon and Barrow lifting them to within two points of the play-off places. That was as good as it got for Rovers though, who went on to win just two of their final 16 games as they slid down the League Two table. They eventually finished the campaign in 18th place, a massive 20 points off a play-off spot, with Schofield dismissed shortly after. The 43-year-old departed having won just ten of his 33 games in charge, losing 19 of them, leaving the side in need of a fresh start and a major overhaul over the summer.
