Rochdale are well on course to record their fourth consecutive win in League Two.
Dale led Wycombe Wanderers 3-1 at half time in this afternoon's clash at Spotland.
Wycombe were unbeaten in six games prior to today, but they fell behind after five minutes when Scott Hogan found the net for the fifth time this season.
The hosts' advantage was trebled by the quarter-hour, as Joe Bunney and Michael Rose got their names on the scoresheet.
Wycombe finally got their act together midway through the half and their improved performance was duly rewarded on 42 minutes when Matt McClure reduced the deficit to two.
