Doncaster Rovers could cut the gap between themselves and the League Two play-off places to five points with a win over Harrogate Town.

Doncaster claimed a credible point against Stockport on Saturday to put back-to-back defeats behind them but need to get their play-off push back on track quickly with just 13 games to go.

Tonight’s opponents have not won in their last seven matches, but five of those have ended in a draw.

Key Events

  • Doncaster could cut gap between themselves and League Two play-offs to five points with a win
  • Harrogate without a win in seven matches have won just once in their last 13
  • Tuesday’s game will be the first time the two teams have gone head-to-head in the EFL

Nelson gives the ball away...again

Turning into a difficult first 45 for the youngster, who must have given the ball away about six times. Hasn’t been helped by a lack of movement from his teammates. This is all a bit laboured from the home side.

James Brown’s cutback following Tommy Rowe’s cross hits a Harrogate defender. Doncaster’s players have their hands up but the ref ignores them.

Rovers force a corner

A decent spell of pressure sees Biggins’ shot blocked and Rowe’s follow-up cleared for a corner. Doncaster improving in these last few minutes.

Better from Doncaster

Kyle Hurst is denied by Oxley after Luke Molyneux’s pass finds his run inside the box.

Mitchell goes long with a goal kick that makes it all the way to Harrogate’s keeper. Sums up the opening 18 minutes.

More sloppiness in possession

For what must be the sixth time Doncaster give the ball away (we’re 13 minutes into the match). Sloppy start, this.

Big save from Mitchell

He gets across to tip Olaigbe’s effort away after the winger met Jack Muldoon’s cutback.

Biggins now gives it away

Kazeem Olaigbe is the benefactor now but fires wide.

Doncaster then go up the other end and Molyneux forces a save out of Mark Oxley. Good effort.

Chance for Harrogate

Luke Armstrong’s volley is deflected wide by Tom Anderson and Ben Nelson’s careless pass allowed Harrogate to steal possession.
