A 2pm ko at Northampton to avoid clashing with the rugby, as Rovers take on the exiled Sky Blues. They've done well so far, wiping off a points deduction to be comfortably in the top half of the table and looking capable of making the play-offs at least.
There isn't too much team news for Rovers. OFW returns from the Welsh bench and will invariably get parachuted straight back into the side. Jennings is unlikely to feature due to a groin strain, but hasn't looked that fit since coming back anyway. Wallace came through a reserve match unscathed (though the team got hammered), but won't make the bench for this one. Given Koumas' encouraging second half, will Ronnie stick with him? Hateley seems out of favour, yet it would be risky going into an away game against an opponent of this calibre without a defensive midfielder... so who to leave out?
I reckon this is one we'll lose, probably 2-0.
