Chesterfield vs Doncaster Rovers
Doncaster Rovers continue their quest for automatic promotion as they travel to Chesterfield for an English League Two fixture on Thursday.
The visitors have been in good form lately and will feel confident heading into this one. They have enough quality to avoid defeat against the home team, who have not been at their best in the last few games.
Chesterfield Form
Chesterfield have struggled to find their best form lately and are winless in six of their last seven League Two matches. Paul Cook's team have lost four times in that run and were beaten 1-0 by Cheltenham Town in their previous fixture.
Things have been a bit better at home for Chesterfield, who are unbeaten in five of their last six League Two matches in front of their fans. However, they recently lost 2-1 at home to MK Dons while a 3-0 defeat to Accrington Stanley is also among their results at SMH Group Stadium.
Chesterfield often show flashes of quality going forward and have scored in five of their last six League Two matches. However, they have also conceded in five matches in that run while the last two fixtures have produced over 2.5 goals.
Doncaster Rovers
Sitting second in the table, seven points off the pace, the task for Doncaster Rovers will be to maintain the pressure on leaders Walsall. They have done a good job keeping up the pace lately, winning five of their last six League Two matches, including a 2-1 victory over MK Dons in their previous fixture.
Doncaster Rovers have also done some good work on their recent travels and are unbeaten in their last three League One away matches. Grant McCann’s team beat Barrow 3-1 in their previous fixture on the road but were recently held to a 1-1 draw by bottom half side Colchester United.
The visitors have scored in each of their last seven League Two matches while also conceding in five fixtures in that run. Their last two matches in the league have also produced over 2.5 goals.
Head to Head
It is evenly split between both teams, with five wins each and seven draws from the last 17 matches. However, Chesterfield have claimed the upper hand in recent meetings, winning the last two matches, including a 3-0 away win in the reverse fixture back in September.
Verdict
Chesterfield have done well in this fixture lately but come into Thursday’s match in poor form. On the other hand, Doncaster Rovers are looking sharp at the moment and have enough quality to avoid defeat on Thursday.
Defending remains a problem for both teams, although there is some quality going forward. They can be backed to both score in a clash expected to produce over 2.5 goals.
