Doncaster Rovers are sweating on the fitness of centre back Abdoulaye Meite ahead of the trip to Nottingham Forest on Saturday.

Meite went off at half time with a hamstring injury in midweek and with Rob Jones, Jamie McCombe, Bongani Khumalo and Gabriel Tamas already out, Rovers have only rookie centre back Luke McCullough definitely fit for the game. Meite is expected to return to training before the game.

Goalkeeper Ross Turnbull and Midfielder Harry Forrester both remain on the sidelines with long-term injuries.

Nottingham Forest have a lengthy injury list.

Dexter Blackstock, Chris Cohen, Jack Hobbs, David Vaughan, Andy Reid, Henri Lansbury, Eric Lichaj and Kelvin Wilson all remain on the sidelines through injury.

Forest will hope Rafik Djebbour will be back in the squad after not recovering in time from injury for the midweek trip to Middlesbrough.

David Vaughan, Chris Cohen, Dexter Blackstock & Jack Hobbs are all long term absentees and not expected to feature again this season. Eric Lichaj`s pelvic injury will see him face a further 4-6 weeks out.

Andy Reid, Kelvin Wilson and Henri Lansbury are all recovering and seem to be a matter of weeks away – hopefully. will face a late fitness test to see if he makes the trip.
