Crewe vs Doncaster Prediction

Crewe Form

Crewe lost twice in their last three matches, as they were defeated 0-1 by Bromley and 3-1 against Milton Keynes Dons. They turned the table by winning 3-2 against Grimsby. Crewe only managed one meagre home win from a possible six at Mornflake Stadium in the FA Cup. They also drew one and lost four of these six encounters, in which they scored six and conceded 13 goals.

Doncaster Form

A single draw prevents Doncaster from having nothing to show for their previous three games. They came up short, losing by 4-0 and 1-2 against Leyton Orient and Northampton, respectively. Their latest match brought some consolation, as they were able to hang on for a 1-1 draw against Reading. Doncaster picked up five wins from a possible six on their recent travels in the FA Cup, while scoring 13 and conceding nine goals. They also lost once while drawing none.

Doncaster are favoured by the bookmakers, and while we are certain, Crewe is going to put up a fight, we believe the visitors will prevail in the end.
