Doncaster Rovers must get their act together sharpish if they are to mount a play-off push with time running out.

Rovers’ hopes of a top-seven finish are hanging by a thread after three wins from four left them nine points off the play-offs heading into today’s match at home to AFC Wimbledon.

The Dons have no win in seven and have lost their last three, but Tuesday’s victors over Doncaster, Harrogate Town, came to the Eco-Power Stadium on a similar run.

LIVE: Doncaster Rovers v AFC Wimbledon

Key Events

  • Game ON following pitch inspection on Saturday morning after freezing conditions overnight
  • Doncaster have lost three of their last four, while Dons are winless in seven with three defeats in their last three
  • Time running out for Danny Schofield’s side in their play-off push

Joseph Olowu tries an overhead kick in the box following a corner, which could have been heading in but for a defensive block. Corner.

Doncaster have a great chance to break through Kyle Hurst but the winger can’t get his pass to Luke Molyneux right and Wimbledon clear. Dons then go up the other end and Armani Little sees his goalbound effort blocked by Ben Nelson.

Good stop from Mitchell

He denies Ali Al-Hamadi at the near post then collects from the resultant corner.

Mitchell is OK and Oram is back on the bench. Who would be a second-choice keeper?

He gets down to save a strike fom distance from Ethan Chislett but appears to have hurt himself in the process.

Seventeen-year-old first-year scholar Jake Oram is coming on.

No changes for Rovers

Will Nightingale makes way for Kasey Mcateer. Looks like a tactical change.

They look a different team. What a difference a goal - or two - makes.

Ben Close sees a shot deflected wide for a corner after some lovely passing play from Doncaster, who are looking like a confident team after their quickfire double.

Joseph Olowu heads wide from Close’s corner.
