Doncaster Rovers vs Everton Prediction and Betting Tips | August 30th 2023

Doncaster Rovers will host Everton at the Eco-Power Stadium on Wednesday in the second round of the 2023-24 Carabao Cup campaign.

The home side have endured a very difficult start to their league campaign and currently find themselves rock-bottom in the League Two standings. They were beaten 2-1 by Milton Keynes Dons at the weekend, finding themselves two goals down before Luke Molyneux came off the bench to score a consolation goal.

Doncaster Rovers faced Hull City in the first round of the League Cup, picking up a 2-1 win, and they will now be looking to test their mettle against top-flight opposition this week.

Everton have had a similarly poor start to their league duties and will hope they can find better luck in the domestic cup this week. They were beaten 1-0 by Wolverhampton Wanderers at Goodison Park last time out and perhaps deserved more from the game but were guilty of wasteful finishing.

The visitors were last knocked out at this stage of the domestic showpiece back in the 2001-02 campaign and will fancy their chances of advancement ahead of Wednesday's game.

Doncaster Rovers vs Everton Prediction

Doncaster are on a run of back-to-back defeats and are winless in their last four games across all competitions. They have lost two of their last three games on home turf and could struggle here.

Everton, meanwhile, are on a three-game losing streak, failing to score any goals in all three outings. They are overwhelming favorites for Wednesday's game and should win this one fairly easily.
