Match Preview

Doncaster Rovers weren't able to turn Isaac Hutchinson's first-half goal into three points against newly promoted Notts County in midweek as the two sides shared the spoils in Yorkshire. Grant McCann's men are winless in five in all competitions heading into Saturday's contest.

Plymouth travel to Yorkshire looking to avenge a comprehensive 2-0 away defeat against recently relegated Leicester in gameweek four. The Pilgrims have won just one of their last five in all competitions but will fancy their chances here.
