Gillingham form and stats
With 1 League One win, 2 draws and 3 defeats from their home games, Gillingham are certainly not brimming with confidence. With three straight defeats the pressure is piling up on Gillingham to get some points in this home game.
Gillingham's previous game was also a home match, the defeat 1-2 versus Sunderland (placed 4th). Vadaine Oliver, who plays in attack, was the champion player for the team in that fixture, and was presented with a rating of 7.75 (out of 10). Oliver hit the woodwork once and hit two key passes.
Prior to that was the away defeat visiting Wycombe Wanderers (0-2).The manager S. Evans will start preparations for the next game as soon this is finished, as the hosts are going to Bolton Wanderers in only four days.
Gillingham are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 6 goals in 6 games. With more than 1,5 conceded goals on average, the Gillingham defense is not exactly impregnable. 11 goals conceded from 6 games. You can find more goal stats on the Statistics tab above.

Wellens is not happy with the away performances in the League One so far, as all 6 matches have been lost. Bitter travels for Doncaster as they have lost six games in a row away from home. The last time they avoided an away-from-home loss was the Sheffield Wednesday match.
This game can not go any worse than the last one, a League One home defeat versus Wycombe Wanderers with 0-2 on the scoreboard. Jordy Hiwula got a match rating of 6.82 in that game, top player of the team. Hiwula hit the woodwork once, hit one key pass and dribled past the opponent 1 of 1 times.
Before that, Doncaster Rovers secured a home win against Milton Keynes Dons with the score 2-1.A quick return to home after this game, as Doncaster are hosting Cheltenham Town in the League One only four days away.
Doncaster are seemingly not capable of scoring regularly on their travels in the league. They have only managed 2 goals from 6 away games. People interested in "over 2,5 goals" betting will like to know that Doncaster Rovers concede an average of more than 2,5 goals per away match all on their own.
