Doncaster Rovers head into this weekend's Championship clash against Nottingham Forest without a win in their last four fixtures.

Paul Dickov's men have only managed to pick up five points from their last six games, leaving them in 18th in the table, while this weekend's opponents sit in a more positive position.

Forest reside in the playoff places after securing three wins in their last six encounters and losing only one. However, they failed to take maximum points against Middlesbrough by seeing out a 2-2 draw.

The home side could give Federico Macheda his first start following his arrival from Manchester United on a loan deal, while Jamie Mackie and Simon Cox are expected to provide the attacking threat for Billy Davies's Forest side.
