Doncaster earned their second win of the season last weekend against Gary Johnsons' Cheltenham Town, and they look to strengthen that with a win when Yeovil Town visit the Keepmoat this Saturday. One thing is for sure - John Marquis, will  be the first name on the team sheet. He has not only scored two in his last two games but has also provided the winning goals in both of those matches.

James Coppinger and Tommy Rowe are two other players that are beginning to get exciting; they seem to have developed a good relationship in midfield and communicate well with each other. The more matches they play together, the bigger the threat they'll become.

Marko Marosi looks set for his third consecutive start for Rovers. In his last two games he's kept two clean sheets, albeit he hasn't had too much to do, but he's done his job when required, and with more match game experience, he will improve - hopefully! However, Marosi may lose his place if Darren Ferguson signs an 'experienced' goalkeeper before Saturday, as he's mentioned in one of his interviews of late.

For the first time in a while our starting eleven picks itself, but the only issue there could be is that, due to injures, we don't have a very experienced bench for back-up. However if a youth player is needed to come on then they might play with no pressure and be just as good as any other experienced player.

Yeovil, similar to Doncaster, have had an inconsistent start; losing two, drawing one and winning one. They've also scored exactly the same amount as goals as we have too, so it could be an exciting match to watch. Rovers have had the most shots in the EFL so far this year, so hopefully we can begin to convert those chances into more goals.

Doncaster have faced Yeovil Town 14 times in the past 13 years, winning 4. The 4 matches we have won have been in more recent years, and the last time they came to the Keepmoat we won 3-0, with goals from Natahan Tyson, Dean Furman and Kyle Bennett; so who knows - could we repeat that scoreline from early 2015?

Predicted lineup v Yeovil Town
Marosi; Lund, Butler, Wright, Evina; Blair, Rowe, Coppinger, Houghton; Marquis and Williams.
