Bristol City prepare to entertain Doncaster Rovers at Ashton Gate on Saturday afternoon, with high hopes of improving on their excellent record against the opposition, having taken all the points from 10 of the 15 contests.
The most recent encounter between these two sides at Ashton Gate was just last season, in August 2005, when they played out a goalless draw in a League One match.
