Two changes in Doncaster Rovers predicted lineup against MK Dons as ‘real leader’ returns to the side

Grant McCann says he’s expecting a difficult game against this weekend’s opponents MK Dons as he celebrates his 250th game in charge of Doncaster Rovers down in Buckinghamshire.

Rovers were soundly beaten on Tuesday evening against promotion hopefuls Luton Town at Kenilworth Round in a missed opportunity to build some much-needed momentum following the jubilation of last Saturday’s victory over Sheffield Wednesday on home soil.

McCann’s men, however, have made clear progress, picking up three wins from their last six games after a winless run in their prior six matches.

MK Dons have also grown into the season. Paul Warne’s side climbed up to 14th in the table after an emphatic 4-1 win over Bromley and have also won the same amount as Rovers in the last six after a slow winless start.

“When you're playing against Paul's teams, you know they're going to be physical, they're going to be aggressive in your face, organised,” said McCann.

“So we know what we're coming up against. We've obviously had them watched) and we've prepared for them for the last couple of days.”

After the heroics of Saturday, Rovers went unchanged for the loss to Luton, but will they shuffle the pack this time around?
