Doncaster Rovers have no new concerns for the visit of Nottingham Forest, who are waiting on Kris Commons.

The promotion hopefuls meet at the Keepmoat Stadium on Friday night and Rovers boss Sean O'Driscoll must decide whether to recall James O'Connor.

The defender missed Monday's draw with Oldham due to a sore tendon, but is available, although Gordon Greer and Mark Wilson are still missing.

Midfielder Paul Green and striker Mark McCammon are also likely to be available for Rovers after shaking off minor injuries.

Loan signing Dimi Konstantopoulos is out for the rest of the season after the Greek goalkeeper ruptured his Achilles tendon in his first training session.

James Perch is suspended, while winger Arron Davies will again be missing with a hamstring problem.
