Recent respective form guides
Doncaster Rovers's poor home run has seen them win just 1 and draw 2 of the last six. While Rovers have scored 5, a worringly large 10 have been leaked at the other end.
Cardiff City's away form is none too clever either, with two wins, two draws, and two defeats. While the Bluebirds have hit 8 goals, 11 have hit the back of the wrong net.
Doncaster Rvs. find themselves struggling down in 17th position in the league having picked up 3 points from their 4 matches. Cardiff City are leading the way in the Coca-Cola Championship, with their 4 games giving them a return of 10 points.

FootyMad's prediction ...
Nothing seems to be going right for the Rovers at home recently, and I can see no immediate turn around in fortunes as the Bluebirds come away with an easy victory. Away win
