9 victories, 5 draws and 6 defeats. That’s what Accrington Stanley have to build on here at Wham Stadium in the League One.

The fans are hoping that Accrington Stanley will strike back in this match, putting things right after the 1-3 away loss in the League One game against Rochdale (placed 22nd). A 0-0 draw away before that, with Blackpool the opponent.

This is expected to be a close game, with Accrington Stanley perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Accrington Stanley as a small favourite), we find eight games. Accrington Stanley has won two of these, drawn three and lost three.

There's a new game coming up fairly quickly for Accrington as they are travelling to their away game against Sunderland in the League One. That match is four days after this one.

The Accrington fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 25 in 20 matches. 21 goals have been conceded.

So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with Doncaster Rovers playing away and similar expectations, we found eleven relevant matches. Results were two Doncaster Rovers wins, two draws and seven defeats.

A new game in only four days for Doncaster, the League One home match versus Fleetwood Town. Busy days.

As opposed to that, Doncaster have seen the ball go into their own net 28 times on the road.
