Doncaster 0-2 Crystal Palace - FA Cup 2024/2025 Statistical Preview

Doncaster should have a clean bill of health ahead of this fourth round clash, with Grant McCann enjoying the luxury of a full squad available for selection.
Expect the hosts to field their strongest XI here.

Joel Ward, Cheick Doucoure and Chadi Riad are ruled out for the visitors.
As many as four players face assessment before Monday's clash, with Eberechi Eze, Matheus Franca, Chris Richards and Eddie Nketiah all doubtful.
Oliver Glasner will be expected to make a handful of changes here, and rest the likes of Jean-Philippe Mateta, Ismaila Sarr and Tyrick Mitchell.

Prediction

After five straight wins, Doncaster came crashing back down to Earth when Chesterfield put five past them on Thursday night.
Grant McCann's side occupy second place in League Two heading into the weekend, and have made up some serious ground on league leaders Walsall in recent weeks.
Crystal Palace made it four wins from their last five matches with a seemingly comfortable 2-0 victory at Old Trafford last Sunday.
Oliver Glasner's side look to be really hitting their stride at this stage of the campaign, and could move into the Premier League's top half in the next few weeks.
The last meeting between these two sides came in the fifth round of this competition back in 2019, with Palace 2-0 winners at the Keepmoat Stadium.
Expect a similar scoreline here, with the away side expected to progress.
