Preview: Doncaster Rovers vs. Watford

Sports Mole looks ahead to the Championship clash between Doncaster Rovers and Watford at the Keepmoat Stadium.

Despite their lowly position, few Championship teams have shown better home form in 2014 than Doncaster Rovers.

Since the turn of the year, Paul Dickov's side have won three of their five encounters at the Keepmoat Stadium, including victories over Wigan Athletic and Blackburn Rovers.

For tomorrow's clash with Watford, Dickov will be without South African defender Bongani Khumalo, who picked up a season-ending knee injury while on international duty last week.

However, Paul Quinn, Mark Duffy, David Cotterill and Billy Sharp all returned to the starting lineup for Saturday's 2-0 victory over Huddersfield Town and the quartet are likely to keep their places for the visit of the Hornets.

As for Watford, attacker Fernando Forestieri is a doubt because of a hamstring injury, while new signing Lucas Neill is likely to start as a substitute.

Ahead of the match, Watford have not won away from home since early October, which is a run that dates back 10 matches.
