Doncaster Rvs. travel to take on Coventry City at Ricoh Arena 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 with only a 20.00% success rate in the fixture.
The last time the two teams met at Coventry City was way back in the black-and-white days of November 1951, with Doncaster Rvs. inflicting a narrow 1 - 2 defeat upon the Sky Blues in a Second Division match.
