The Match

Preview

Sports Mole previews Saturday's League One clash between Sunderland and Doncaster Rovers, including predictions, team news and possible lineups.

We said: Sunderland 3-1 Doncaster Rovers

 Sunderland will hope that the removal of Johnson will bring about a fresh start after their thrashing last weekend, and we expect them to bounce back with a victory on Saturday. Both sides will look to rebound from damning defeats, but the Black Cats boast the stronger squad, and, with home advantage, they should cruise past the basement side. Read more.
