Handicap Betting ... Dons -14pts 10/11 Betfred ... -16pts 10/11 Bet365 & Skybet

Match Betting ... Dons 1/7 Betfred ... 1/8 Skybet ... 1/12 Bet365

Team news ... Jamie Bovill (one match ban) and Chris Spurr (hamstring injury) join long-term absentees Aaron Dobek and Grant Edwards in being unavailable for this Championship One opening fixture.

Craig Fawcett and Shaun Leaf come back into contention having trained this week after missing recent games.

Difficult to weigh up the Scorpions with only one competative game played after they elected not to take part in the Northern Rail Cup.

On a strict line of form through Dewsbury Rams, the Dons should be capable of winning this with a good few points to spare. Match fitness ought to favour Tony Millers team too.

Team for tomorrow, here's my thougts

Butterfield
Sanderson
Morrison
Leaf
Colton
Fawcett
Spavin
Carbutt
P Hughes
Scott
Emitt
Robinson
C Hughes

Kesik
Ely
Sampson
Crawley

Paddy Power also Dons -14pts 10/11 on the Handicap but 1/10 in the match betting.

I thought we would be less than -14 to be honest so i stayed clear.

Others at betfred yesterday were

Widnes - 14 at Sheffield
Batley -6 v Dewsbury
Keighley -24 v Skolars
Oldham -38 v Gateshead
Swinton -12 v Worky.

I had a couple of quid on all 5 coming up!
