Doncaster Rovers are in the hunt for a League Two play-off place.

Grant McCann’s side are the form side in the entire country having won nine successive league games. The latest was a thrilling 4-2 victory over Barrow last weekend.

Tonight sees them travel to Essex to face Colchester United, who only need a point to preserve their League Two status.

It’s a crucial night ahead and we’ll be bringing you regular updates on our live blog. Stay tuned below for the latest throughout the night:

Colchester v Rovers LIVE

Iandolo is cautioned for a cynical tug on the shirt of Molyneux.

Rovers trail 1-0 as Jayden Fevrier taps in from close range. Looked to take a nick off a backtracking Rovers defender near the line. Got caught down their right and Colchester took advantage.

Iandolo whips a dangerous ball into the box and Wood scuffs his clearance over the bar for a corner.

Adelakun takes the first corner of the game but it sails straight into the arms of Hornby. Windy night, so worth a try.

Colchester get us underway.

Plenty of noise from the Rovers fans...

A Rovers win tonight will see them equal the club record of ten straight league wins, stretching all the way back to the 1946-47 season....

The manager is serving the first of a two-game ban tonight and so is sat high up in the middle, main stand here at Colchester watching the players do their warm-ups from afar. Cliff Byrne the man on the ground in the dugout.
