Doncaster will be looking to get back to winning ways this weekend as they face Gillingham at the Keepmoat Stadium.

Tuesday nights 1-0 defeat at home to Notts Counts sadly means that Rovers were eliminated from the Johnstones Paint Trophy, leaving just the league and FA Cup fixtures to focus on.  It also means that as Rovers go into the game on Saturday, they still have the unwanted record of just one home win all season.  While away form is good, the home form remains something that Paul Dickov really needs to find a solution for.

Changes to the side are to be expected as Paul Dickov rung the changes during the week.  Reece Wabara, Enda Stevens, Paul Keegan, Jamie Coppinger and Richie Wellens are all in line for recalls to the side.  Cedric Evina remains sidelined.

Gillingham currently occupy 20th position in the league table,  four places below Doncaster and both sides will be looking for the three points to push them up the table.  The Gills have won just one league game in the last ten, but Rovers will need to keep striker Cody McDonald quiet in order to get anything from the game.

The last time the two sides faced each other was in March 2008 where Rovers won the game 2-1.  A goal from James Coppinger and a second half penalty gave Sean O’Driscolls men victory.

Come on you reds!

Overall record Vs Gillingham:  P 55/W 12/D 13/L 30
