Preview: Doncaster Rovers vs. Blackburn Rovers

Doncaster vs. Blackburn

Doncaster Rovers will try to get their first win of the Championship season when they take on Blackburn Rovers at the Keepmoat Stadium this Friday.

Paul Dickov is yet to pick up a point this season following a 3-1 defeat to Blackpool, while Blackburn have picked up just one point from their first two games.

Theo Robinson is expected to come into the squad for the clash, while Dean Furman and Luke McCullough should be assessed ahead of the match following their excursions with their respective national teams.

Blackburn manager Gary Bowyer is expected to be able to call on Grant Hanley, despite the player taking a knock while on international duty, while Jordan Rhodes should be providing the goal threat for the travelling side.
