Doncaster Rovers take on Port Vale in a League One clash on Tuesday with both sides involved in the relegation battle. Rovers have a solid, if not spectacular record at their Eco-Power Stadium, while the visiting Valiants are struggling at the foot of the table, but with games in hand on teams around them. What will our prediction be for a match that is a real relegation six-pointer?
It has not been the best of seasons for either of the two promoted teams from last season. Doncaster Rovers sit 17th n the table with 47 points from 38 games, five clear of the relegation spots. Port Vale have played just 36 games, but have only taken 31 points and are currently 11 points from safety and sit rock bottom of the table four points behind Northampton in 23rd.
Doncaster have found some form of late and come into the game following a 1-1 home draw with Luton Town, which was followed by a 2-1 home win at Blackpool. They then earned a very good point with a 0-0 draw away at promotion-chasing Bolton and then beat Barnsley in a Yorkshire derby 1-0 away at the weekend.
Port Vale's recent form is not as strong. They were beaten 2-0 at home by Bradford and followed that up with a 0-0 home draw with Huddersfield Town. A 3-2 defeat at Blackpool followed and at the weekend, they earned a 1-0 home win over Bolton.

Our Doncaster vs Port Vale Prediction
Our prediction for the Doncaster Rovers vs. Port Vale League One match is: Doncaster wins.
Port Vale's league struggles have hindered their season, but so has an FA Cup run that has seen them reach the quarter finals. Doncaster can take full advantage of that here against a Vale side who have struggled to string results together this season. Rovers have solid form of late and their home form is also good. As such, backing them to win is the bet to back here.
