Both teams to score
Doncaster has made successive clean sheets in the recent H2Hs against Northampton but the visiting side has secured a scoring string previously, scoring in six games in a row. However, the Cobblers have also allowed goals in the last four visits. In opposition, Doncaster has also scored in the last three attempts consecutively while conceding goals at the same time as well in all of them. Hence, we expect this game to feature both sides on the scoring side in this game.
Total goals under 2.5
Four of the last five meetings of these teams have ended with below 2.5 goals and we predict the same for this duel. Doncaster Rovers have managed to hit the target only four times in the last five league outings. Northampton has won the recent successive games but the team has managed an average of only one goal per game in the last six attempts. The Cobblers have also recorded four clean sheets in the last five outings.

At home, Doncaster Rovers are 9th with 31 points. They have won 10 matches at home and drawn 1, losing 7 of their home games so far. The hosts have looked quite shaky defensively, especially when playing at home, noting that Doncaster Rovers have scored 24 and conceded 21 goals on home soil. And while Doncaster has dominated this matchup in the last five meetings with five wins and lost only once to Northampton, recent stats are worrying. They have only one victory from their last 7 league matches and a total of four defeats recorded during that period.

Moore, Anderson, Brown, Olowu, Seaman, Rowe, Close, Molyneux, Hurst, Ravenhill, Lavery
