Doncaster Rovers, Recent FormBuilding up confidence within his squad will be a priority for Doncaster Rovers supremo Danny Schofield after sustaining a heavy 4-1 away loss to Mansfield Town.
He will be doing some careful analysis of his defence, who have seen their goal breached 12 times in their last 6 games while somehow managing to pick up some points along the way with 8 goals scored. Keeping a clean sheet at home has not come easy this season, and he will not be happy with his team's defensive record, which shows they have shipped one or more goals in 11 their 17 home matches.
In terms of results, it's been a bit of a mixed bag for Doncaster recently, having won 3 and lost 3 of their last 6 games.
Hartlepool United, Recent FormThe Hartlepool United players will be feeling somewhat disenchanted with their inability to pick up any points from their home fixture against Colchester United recently, that ended in a 2-1 defeat.
Supremo Keith Curle will be closely scrutinising his squad's defensive frailties, his back line having shipped 12 goals in their last 6 matches, despite having picked up some points through the 8 goals they've managed to net. They are showing great consistency in finding the back of the net, having scored in 5 of their last 6 games. They have found it hard to grab league points away from home of late, primarily due to their back line shipping at least 1 goal in 13 of their last 14 away games.
They have been on a bad run over their last 6 league matches, with 4 defeats and only 1 victory, so they know full well that a change of form is needed if they want to begin moving up the league table.
Josh Umerah will be keen to add his name to the scoresheet and build on his current scoring record of 3 goals in the last 6 league games for Hartlepool United.
When these two teams last met in the league it was a 2-1 win for Hartlepool United.
The Pool defence has struggled against Doncaster in past meetings, having conceded 1 or more goals in each of their last 8 games.
In the league, Doncaster has a good track record when they host Hartlepool, getting the better of them in their last 3 home games.
With no real injury worries, Doncaster manager Danny Schofield will be happy to have his full squad available for selection.
Hartlepool manager Keith Curle has no real injury worries ahead of this clash.
