Match Facts
After their 1-2 defeat in April last season, Doncaster could lose consecutive Football League meetings with Grimsby Town for the first time since May 1989.
Grimsby are looking to earn back-to-back Football League away wins over Doncaster for the first time since March 1979.
Doncaster’s Joe Ironside has two goal involvements in his last three Football League appearances against Grimsby, scoring for Macclesfield in December 2019 and assisting for Cambridge in May 2021.
Grimsby are without a win in nine league games on the road (D3 L6); they last endured a longer such run in the Football League in April 2018 (run of 11).
