Doncaster Rovers sit 19th with 9 points from 10 matches and need points to escape the lower zone, while Sheffield Wednesday are 7th with 18 points and are chasing up into the top group. This game therefore carries different weight for each side. Doncaster have just lost two in a row, conceding 0-2 in their latest match, and their attack still relies on home form. Sheffield Wednesday also lost 0-2 in the league last time out, but before that they scored 5-0 at home and are unbeaten in 4 of their last 5 matches. Their season record is 20 scored and 10 conceded in 10 matches, clearly higher than the hosts' 10 scored and 13 conceded. The pattern is likely to be Sheffield Wednesday dominating possession and pushing forward, with Doncaster waiting to counter from the flanks. The first half may still be a trade of chances, but in the second half the hosts are likely to drop deeper when facing a team that can keep the ball moving. The game is likely to finish with a result that is not too far apart.
