Robins strong for Rovers test

In-form Bristol City have a fully-fit squad as they look to continue their eye-catching start against Doncaster.

An unbeaten six-match start to the League One campaign means the Robins are currently second in the table and boss Steve Cotterill could name the same XI that saw off Scunthorpe at Ashton Gate last weekend.

Greg Cunningham scored the second goal in that 2-0 win just seconds after stepping off the bench and the Irish left-back will hope to have done enough to earn a start against Donny.

Kieran Agard looks set to start in attack once more as he looks for his first City goal.

Boss Paul Dickov is expected to make changes when his Doncaster side return to action.

Following a flat display last time out at home to Oldham on August 30, Harry Forrester and Richie Wellens are leading the clamour for recalls ahead of Saturday. The pair came off the bench in the disappointing 2-0 loss to the Latics.

Wellens, with just two substitute appearances under his belt this season owing to his contract situation, could replace Dean Furman who has been away with South Africa on international duty. Forrester's cameo against Oldham may be enough to earn him a start ahead of Kyle Bennett on the left flank.

Dickov, who is still without striker Curtis Main (knee), is likely to keep faith with the 4-2-3-1 formation that worked so well in the last two away games at Colchester and Watford.
