Recent respective form guides

Doncaster Rovers's dreadful home form has resulted in just 1 victory and 1 draw from their last six played. Rovers have conceded a disappointing 6 goals in this period, and managed to convert only 1 of their own chances.

Swansea City's away form is none too clever either, picking up two good wins, but losing three, from the last six. While the Swans have hit 6 goals, 10 have hit the back of the wrong net.

Doncaster Rvs. find themselves stuck right at the bottom of the division. Their 14 games have yielded only 8 points. Swansea City's 20 points from 14 games sees them lie inside the top half of the table, in 11th position.
