Team News
Prior to the game, Under 23s manager Michael Allsebrook said that he has a strong squad to pick from with skipper Maddie Moore back in training and in contention for Sunday's squad.

From The Manager
Allsebrook said: “We played them [Doncaster] away from home earlier in the season and they were a really good, young and physical side and good in midfield. They have a great setup and are a well-supported club so it will be a tough game for us; it’s our last game of the season so we want to end the season on a high, but it will be a competitive game.
“For us in this league Stoke and Derby are the standouts, so for us to be the third best team in this league would be a really good achievement. That’s our aim and knowing that three points will get us it is a real target for us.”
