Cheltenham vs Doncaster Predictions

After starting the campaign with three draws in their opening three league fixtures it has hardly been a glorious return to the Football League for Cheltenham Town. Gary Johnson has kept the bulk of the squad that stormed to the National League title last season and has only added a handful of players so the question was always going to be if the players could make the step up. With two of the three draws coming against teams that are expected to challenge for promotion it is clear that Cheltenham have the quality to compete with anyone in the division but they will have to improve in order to convert those draws into wins.

Doncaster have come down into League Two after their relegation last season but they were widely tipped by many to challenge for an immediate return to League One. Rovers currently sit lowest of all of the relegated teams in the early season table but Darren Ferguson has already stated he wants John Marquis’ winner against Cambridge to kick start their season.

It’s a tough match to call as there seems to be very little to separate these two sides. One thing that is apparent is that neither side is particularly prolific in front of goal so we are going to go for there to be less than 2.5 goals. This is available at 7/10 with bet365 and for our correct score tip we are backing Cheltenham to make it four 1-1 draws in a row which is at 11/2 with the same site.
