Doncaster Rvs. prepare to entertain Nottingham Forest at Keepmoat Stadium on Friday evening, looking to improve on a dire past record against their opponents. It does not make pleasant reading, winning 26.67 of the games played between the two.
The most recent encounter between these two sides at Keepmoat Stadium was just last season, in December 2006, the Rovers carving out a narrow 1-0 victory in a League One match.
