The Reds moved out the relegation zone with a 1-0 win over rivals AFC Wimbledon at the weekend and can put themselves four points clear of the drop zone, with a game in hand, should they beat Doncaster.

Hide AdThey’re going through a tough spell at the moment with just one win in six games, that being a 2-1 win over AFC Wimbledon.
Things haven’t got better for Danny Schofield’s side as they will be without top scorer George Miller and midfielder Harrison Biggins due to injury.
The Rovers physio room is a busy place at the moment with lots of injuries in the Doncaster camp, and they were forced into signing goalkeeper Stuart Moore on an emergency loan from Blackpool.
Moore made a big mistake to gift Salford a goal on Saturday as Doncaster lost 3-1.

Hide AdCrawley will certainly fancy their chances following consecutive victories for only the second time this season.
Ashley Nadesan has looked back to his best in the last couple of games with him getting his first goal since November at AFC Wimbledon.
Scott Lindsey’s side have also been given a huge boost by the return of James Tilley who has made a big impact since returning from injury.
Tilley’s run in behind the full back allowed him to cross for Nadesan’s winner at the weekend.

Three points will be the target before a big game at home to bottom of the league Rochdale at the weekend.
