Key Events
- Rovers have won three out of their last four games heading into the clash
- Leyton Orient are managed by Doncaster legend Richie Wellens and top League Two with 14-point gap to play-offs
- Both teams couldn’t be separated at the Eco-Power Stadium last time out, drawing 1-1
GOAL - Orient take the lead
A stunning dipping effort from Theo Archibald from outside the box flies over Mitchell. A great goal from the hosts, who celebrate in unison in the touchline.
Woltman on for Molyneux.
Max Woltman coming on
Donny could do with getting out of their own half a little. They’re being pinned back on the ropes a bit here.
Another good save Mitchell
He catches a volley from the edge of the box, real smart stop. Home crowd are getting loud now. Here comes that spell from the league leaders it would seem.
Mitchell punches clear
Theo Archibald tries to catch him out at the near post with a whipped effort but the Doncaster goalie punches the ball out for a corner.
Every man back for Donny now. Orient beginning to turn the screw a little and see a deflected effort fly just wide and out for another corner.
Booking for Tom Anderson
And a free-kick for Orient on the edge of the box. Think that must be for persistent fouling.
Orient unhappy
The ball becomes unstuck in a melee in Doncaster’s box, with several players on the floor and play at an impasse. Ref blows for a Rovers free-kick but Orient want a penalty. Not sure what for, a possible handball?
Decent first 45 from Doncaster, who have defended well and limited Orient to very little (just one shot on target for the hosts). The O’s don’t look too threatening on this evidence.
Miller could do with a bit more support at the other end as for all their defensive efforts Rovers haven’t threatened too much themselves, although their number nine could have done better with one or two half-chances.
