Both Teams To Score

Reason for tip

Doncaster beat Chesterfield 5-1 in the EFL Trophy earlier this week and another entertaining match-up with goals at both ends could be on the cards in Derbyshire. Chesterfield have scored in 15 consecutive games across all competitions and both teams have scored in seven of their last nine. Donny may not manage another five-goal showing but the League One outfit clearly have enough quality to trouble their fourth tier hosts, and there have been goals at both ends in eight of their last nine games.

Doncaster 2-1

Reason for tip

Donny thrashed their hosts in a reverse fixture a few days ago but Chesterfield tend to be far tougher at home. The Spireites have only lost one home game in League Two and they can keep this tight but Doncaster’s form and extra quality suggests they can grind out a win, take a chance on a 2-1 victory for the visitors.

Billy Sharp To Score Anytime

Reason for tip

Veteran forward Billy Sharp scored two and assisted two in Doncaster’s 5-1 EFL Trophy win over Chesterfield earlier this week. That performance should see him keep his starting spot and he is a clear contender for an anytime goal in this FA Cup meeting.

Chesterfield and Donny bid for 3rd round draw

Local rivals Chesterfield and Doncaster meet for the second time in the space of five days on Saturday in the second round of the FA Cup.

Donny won 5-1 on Tuesday in a reverse fixture in South Yorkshire in the EFL Trophy, although both sides rotated for that competition and should revert back to their best XIs or close to for this televised cup tie.

Veteran forward Billy Sharp should keep his place in the Rovers side for the trip to Derbyshire after two goals and two assists on Tuesday, and he looks a contender for an anytime goal after that display.

Donny may have thrashed the Spireites a few days ago but Chesterfield tend to be better at home and the best angle for our main bet is backing both teams to score.

The hosts have scored in 15 successive games across all competitions and both teams have scored in seven of their last nine games, while there have been goals at both ends in eight of Doncaster’s last nine.

Doncaster won 2-1 at Chesterfield’s fourth tier rivals Crewe in the last round and a repeat of that scoreline is the correct score pick here. The League One outfit are the team in the better form as they are unbeaten in three across all competitions, winning twice, while Chesterfield have suffered back-to-back defeats. Doncaster should be capable of securing their place in the third round but this game should be far closer than their EFL Trophy meeting a few days ago.
