Doncaster Rvs. travel to take on Cardiff City at Ninian Park on Saturday afternoon, needing to turn around their fortunes at the ground. The Rovers will be hoping to improve upon a record which has seen them ending up on the losing side in more than half of the games played between the two.
The last time the two teams met at Cardiff City was more than a decade ago, in March 1998, with Cardiff City annihilating their visitors 7 - 1 in a League Division Three match.
