Palace v Doncaster

December 12 2008

Paul Ifill

Crystal Palace take on Doncaster on Saturday and will be forced to make at least one change from the team which beat Southampton on Monday.

Striker Craig Beattie has been recalled to West Brom this week, which could mean Paul Ifill makes a return to the starting lineup.

Neil Warnock might have to make further changes in midfield as John Oster and Ben Watson both picked up knocks in the last game.

Warnock won't be able to rely on Neil Danns (back) and Carl Fletcher (ankle) though, as both are out injured.

Doncaster go into the game in 22nd place in the Championship and will be looking to pick up some vital points to push themselves out of the relegation zone.

Boss Sean O'Driscoll has a selection headache with three out of four first choice midfielders potentially out injured.

James Coppinger (dead leg), Richie Wellens (virus) and Brian Stock (calf) are all facing major battles to be fit in time for the game.
