Doncaster Rovers form and stats
Doncaster Rovers, who have the fewest scored goals (16) in League One, have played 12 League One games at their own stadium so far this season, resulting in 4-3-5 (wins-draws-losses). Doncaster has three losses from their three previous games and the tension is increasing in the dressing room for both the manager McSheffrey and the players.
The Doncaster Rovers fans got no joy from their last match, a League One game also here at Keepmoat Stadium: A 0-1 defeat against Fleetwood Town (placed 20th). The goalie Dahlberg was named most valuable player of the team in that game, scoring 7.31 out of ten. Dahlberg stopped the opponent with five saves.
A defeat was the result before that one, 3-4 away at Morecambe.Doncaster have scored 10 league goals here from 12 matches, not a lot. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 1 of these goals has been scored in their last three home matches. 14 goals have been conceded.
Wigan Athletic form and stats
Wigan Athletic have been very strong on the road so far with a massive 25 points collected from 10 League One games. 8 wins, 1 draw and 1 defeat is the record so far. Wigan are enjoying a nice run from their away games now, having played nine in a row without losing.
The supporters enjoyed Wigan's previous game versus Blackburn Rovers, a FA Cup 3-2 win played at home. Aasgaard came off the bench to score the winning goal in the match against Blackburn Rovers last time out, making the manager Richardson feel like a tactical genius. Late drama in the previous game, when Aasgaard scored the winning goal four minutes into stoppage time to defeat Blackburn Rovers.
Before that one, a nice away victory 6-0 at Oldham Athletic.There might be some complaints about the fixture list from the Wigan manager Richardson as the team has another away game coming up in only three days, this time against Morecambe.
Wigan are a potent attacking force on the road with their 25 goals in 10 league games. Wigan have conceded 10 goals in these away matches. It's worth mentioning that 5 of these goals has been conceded in their last three away matches.
