Our third league game and second away trip of the 2025/26 season sees The Chairboys travel to newly crowned League Two winners, Doncaster Rovers.

Wycombe Wanderers will be looking to get points on the board after opening the season with back-to-back defeats. Meanwhile, Doncaster are off to a flying start, winning their first two league games and thrashing Middlesbrough 4-0 in the Carabao Cup midweek.

The Chairboys faced Doncaster many times over the years, both at their historic Belle Vue ground and at their modern 15,231-capacity Eco-Power Stadium.

Our first visit to Belle Vue came during our debut Football League season in 1993/94. That campaign ended in promotion via the play-offs. In that fixture, Steve Brown opened the scoring in the 6th minute, followed by a first-half brace from Steve Guppy to give Wycombe Wanderers a commanding 3-0 lead at the break. Doncaster responded strongly in the second half, but the 500 travelling Chairboys fans were the ones celebrating at full time.
