Best Tip: Under 3.5 goals

We can expect some goalmouth action in this one, but don't count on a record-breaker. Under 3.5 goals is what we're predicting, meaning there will be no more than 3 goals scored during a standard 90 mins. The best odds on that outcome are just below, followed by recent form stats and head-to-head (H2H) records.

Goal Statistics

Lincoln City's fans will be hoping for goals on Saturday afternoon, not least because Doncaster Rovers have conceded in each of their last 9 League One matches. A PG of 1.6 for M. Skubala's side suggests that run should continue.

A truly awful PG of just 0.9 should cause concerns for Doncaster Rovers fans, as should a 8 League One games run in which they have failed to score more than 1 goal.
