Doncaster’s form
Doncaster have beaten Middlesbrough – an impressive 4-0 win against the Championship side at the Riverside – and Accrington Stanley (2-0, also away) to reach the third round. Managed by Grant McCann, Rovers have made a good start to their League One campaign with three wins and a draw in their first five matches.
Last time we met
We faced Rovers away in the second round in 2009/10. After early pressure from the home side and a couple of saves from Carlo Cudicini, we went on to win 5-1 with five different goalscorers – Tom Huddlestone, Jamie O’Hara, Peter Crouch – his first for us – David Bentley and Roman Pavlyuchenko. Danny Rose, born in Doncaster, made his Spurs debut in that match, while there were first starts for Crouch and Kyle Naughton. Goalkeeper David Button, an Academy product, also made his only appearance for us off the bench in the second half.
