Kidderminster Harriers host Doncaster Rovers at Aggborough Stadium on Saturday 7 November (3pm UK kick-off) in the FA Cup 1st Round. Kidderminster play in the National League and Doncaster in League One, but the visitors have lost four of their last five games and conceded six at MK Dons on 31 October. Kidderminster have not won in their last four National League matches, so neither side arrives in convincing form.
The bookmakers make Doncaster the 1.80 favourites, with Kidderminster at 4.00 and the draw at 3.80. Both teams to score and over 2.5 goals are each priced at 1.67.
Kidderminster's last five matches brought one win, two draws and two defeats. They drew 0-0 away at Carlisle on 10 October, then beat Solihull Moors 2-1 at Aggborough in the previous round of this competition on 17 October. Since then they have lost 1-2 at home to Worthing, drawn 0-0 at Altrincham and lost 2-1 at Solihull Moors, all in the National League.
Over their last ten matches in all competitions Kidderminster have won two, drawn four and lost four. Three of their last five had exactly three goals, with both teams scoring each time, and the other two were 0-0 draws, so they have kept two clean sheets in that run.
Doncaster have lost four of their last five League One games. They went down 6-1 at MK Dons on 31 October and 3-1 at Luton four days before that. Their one win in the run was a 2-0 home victory over Sheffield Wednesday on 24 October, and before that came a 0-2 home defeat to Stockport and a 2-1 loss at Leicester. That is 13 goals conceded in five games, and across their last ten matches they have won three, drawn one and lost six.
Kidderminster Harriers possible starting lineup:
Wint; Crompton, Harries, MacDonald, Faakye; Brogan, Hargreaves, Davis; Reindorf, Walker, Kouhyar
Doncaster Rovers possible starting lineup:
Simkin; Sterry, Byrne, Grehan, Senior; Bailey, Gotts, Thomas; Hutchinson, Ayinde, May
