Harrogate v Doncaster Betting Tips, Odds & Match Preview - League Two
Harrogate Town will be looking to give themselves some respite when they welcome Doncaster Rovers to The Exercise Stadium on Thursday evening.
A challenging start to this term in League Two leaves Harrogate in 20th spot in the table, just two points above the drop zone.
In stark contrast, Doncaster Rovers are flying, and with just one defeat to their name from five matches played, they are top of the table.
After being knocked out in the playoffs last term, Doncaster means business this season, and they will do anything to get back into the third tier of English football.
Anyway, a Yorkshire derby should please those who are looking for league football to get their teeth stuck into as the international break draws to a close.
I have delved into the exciting world of League Two and produced a couple of Harrogate v Doncaster betting tips for you to look over before kick-off, plus the top football betting offers from our range of best betting sites.

Harrogate v Doncaster Match Preview
As we all know, League Two is a marathon and not a sprint, and there will be plenty of forktwists in the road.
Doncaster are under no illusions, but they will be giving themselves a pat on the back with the way they have acquitted themselves despite this being the early stages of the campaign.
Over the weekend, Doncaster stuck to their task gamely against Gillingham before journeyman striker Billy Sharp, who returned to the club, settled matters on the half-hour mark.
With 10 goals plundered this term, Doncaster have had no problem finding the back of the net, although one criticism that can be levelled at them is that they could do better at defending set pieces.
Anyway, Harrogate, who have found things tough going so far, recorded a 3-1 win when the sides last met in January.
That said, I can’t see Harrogate getting anything out of Doncaster this time. To kickstart my Harrogate Doncaster betting tips, I’ve gone with Doncaster to win & BTTS which provides value judging by the 11/4 price allocated by bet365.
Doncaster to show powers of recovery to win
This is far from a storied fixture, and these two teams have only faced each other five times in all competitions.
In terms of the tale of the tape, Harrogate lead 3-1 in the head-to-head, but going into this, Doncaster should be considered strong favourites.
Interestingly, in their only defeat this term, Doncaster were ahead against Newport County before they were pegged back and were then humbled somewhat.
Anyway, instead of leaning towards my goalscorer predictions, I have gone with a match tip that adds weight to my first pick.
To round things off, I’m going for Doncaster to win after coming from behind, and I’ve spotted an eye-catching 10/1 price available with bet365.
