Our prediction for the match Doncaster vs Crystal Palace
“The Rovers” returned to the League Two in 2023. And they were able to take 5th place there right away, though, then losing in the play-offs. “The Glaziers” replaced the ageing specialist, Hodgson, who allegedly began to have health troubles, with Glasner a year ago, in the midst of the draw. And they managed to finish in the middle of the table, in 10th place.
Speaking about a new season, the club from the capital could not find its game again for a long time. It won for the first time only at the end of October (that success had remained the only one in the Premier League until winter). At the same time, the team has established a stable set of points, albeit mainly due to draws, since the end of autumn. And late December and January brought 10 points in 4 rounds! Still, then the club lost to Brentford. It achieved a 2-0 result in the game against Manchester United at Old Trafford. Grant McCann’s footballers are now among the leaders of the fourth division. At the same time, a series of victories was followed by a 2-5 failure in the meeting with Chesterfield.
“The Rovers” started in the cup back in November. Having beaten Barrow and Kettering, they then played a draw on the field of Hull. It is reasonable to mention that the club managed to beat them in a penalty shoot-out. “The Londoners” reached the quarter-finals of the League Cup, where they lost to Arsenal. As for the FA Cup, they won by a minimum, 1-0, in the battle against Stockport thanks to an early goal by Eze.
