Money on Donny
Rovers won at Watford in the last round while managerless Fulham are in crisis mode.
Fulham are in disarray and I don’t think it matters what side they field on Tuesday, they look massively unappealing as an odds-on (10/11 WilliamHill) proposition. Instead, the smart money lies with Doncaster at 7/2 (Betfred).
The Cottagers have lost seven of their eight Championship fixtures following their relegation and only have a solitary point against fellow-strugglers Cardiff to show for their troubles. They are now also without a permanent manager following the sacking of Felix Magath.
Doncaster arrive off the back of a 3-2 home win but actually their best form has come on the road. In all competitions, Rovers have won four times away already in 2014-15 with the highlight being the second round victory at Watford in this competition.
That 2-1 success at Vicarage Road was hugely deserved and if they can do it there, they can do it at Craven Cottage.
