Doncaster vs Crystal Palace prediction, H2H & Probable Line-ups – February 10, 2025
Doncaster
A match between Doncaster and Crystal Palace will take place as part of the FA Cup Round of 32. The game is scheduled for Monday, February 10, with kickoff at 20:45 CET. I propose a bet on the total number of goals in this match.
Match Preview
Doncaster plays in League Two, the fourth tier of English football, but is currently close to promotion. The team sits second in League Two and is a strong contender for a place in League One next season.
In the FA Cup, Doncaster has already overcome three rounds. Notably, they faced difficulties in each match: they edged past Barrow with a late goal, defeated Kettering in extra time, and overcame Hull City in a penalty shootout.
Crystal Palace has been performing well this season. The team has lost just one of its last five matches and recently secured an away victory against Manchester United.
In the FA Cup, the London club narrowly defeated Stockport in the previous round, despite not facing much trouble during the game. Their next opponent does not pose a significant threat, and Crystal Palace should comfortably advance to the Round of 16.
Match Facts
- Doncaster has scored in each of its last five home matches.

Head-to-Head
The last time these teams met in the FA Cup was six years ago, with Crystal Palace securing a 2-0 victory.

There is little doubt about the visitors’ victory, but I do not expect this match to be particularly high-scoring. My suggested bet is on the total goals being under 3.5.
