Swansea City face a trip to Doncaster Rovers at Keepmoat Stadium on Saturday afternoon, needing to turn around their fortunes at the ground. The Swans will be hoping to improve upon a record which has seen them ending up on the losing side in more than half of the games played between the two.
The most recent encounter between these two sides was just last season, in December 2005, the Rovers carving out a narrow 2 - 1 victory in a League One match.
