Doncaster Rovers battle against Ipswich Town, who have the most scored goals (13) in League One, for glory and sporting success.
It's no vacation for neither Doncaster nor Ipswich Town as both were in action only a few days ago. Expect some tired legs on the pitch and/or possibly some changes to the lineups.
Doncaster Rovers form and stats
OK but not perfect. That could be the conclusion for Doncaster Rovers's two home games in the League One so far this season, having collected 4 points here at The Keepmoat Stadium.
A good away victory last time out for Doncaster Rovers, who won 1-0 against Portsmouth (placed 10th). Prior to that, an away loss at Oldham Athletic in the EFL Trophy.
The bookmakers consider this a fairly even contest. One could say only the home advantage separates the teams. It could be relevant to look at how Doncaster have performed in matches similar to this (as small favourites). Our database has found eleven matches with the results: Won three, drawn three and lost five.
Some members of the home team might already be thinking of their next match, the League One game versus Crewe Alexandra in only four days. This game is also played here at The Keepmoat Stadium.
At The Keepmoat Stadium, Doncaster Rovers has the goal stats of 5-2 (for/against) from 2 league fixtures.
Ipswich Town form and stats
The seven points Ipswich Town have gathered from their first three away trips in the League One is impressive and could lead to great things if the form continues.
Ipswich go into this game after a win, the home game against Accrington Stanley that ended 2-0. Preceding that game was the away victory against Blackpool with the score of 4-1.
So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with Ipswich Town playing away and similar expectations, we found eleven relevant matches. Results were three Ipswich wins, four draws and four defeats.
The schedule is very tough for Ipswich Town now as they have to travel again shortly after this match. A League One game at Lincoln City is waiting in only four days.
The Ipswich Town manager P. Lambert has got the team scoring on the road, with 7 away goals in 3 league matches. Ipswich are defending well in their away games, having conceded only 2 times in 3 matches. For more goal statistics, check out the Statistics tab above.
