STAR FOOTBALL PREVIEW Tues: Doncaster v Leyton Orient

Two sides looking to boost their League One survival hopes go head-to-head on Tuesday night as Doncaster Rovers take on Leyton Orient at the Keepmoat Stadium, writes JOE CITRONE.

Life back in the third-tier has been tough for Doncaster Rovers since promotion from League Two last season, but there have been green shoots in recent weeks, with Grant McCann’s side going the last three games unbeaten.

However, they will have been immensely disappointed not to pick up all three points in their after letting a three-goal lead slip in their last outing against Wigan Athletic. There is no doubt, though, that progress is being made.

After a setback at the weekend, Leyton Orient will be looking to push themselves further away from the bottom-four when they travel to Doncaster at the weekend.

A stoppage-time penalty from Mason Burstow condemned Leyton Orient to defeat in their most recent outing, which leaves Richie Wellens’ side just three points above the relegation zone.

Without wanting to sit on the fence too much, I fancy a draw here, and with Doncaster not keeping a clean sheet in their last 15 home matches, both teams to score seems like a sensible selection.
