Martin Woods, Adam Lockwood and Byron Webster are expected to return for Doncaster ahead of Saturday's trip to face Nottingham Forest.

Woods missed out last week through suspension while the central defensive pair have been sidelined long-term, Lockwood since late September due to two fractured bones in his foot and Webster since early October with a shoulder injury.

On-loan Wolves defender Jason Shackell, another centre-half, stepped off the bench in last Saturday's 2-0 home win over QPR following a groin injury and could return to the starting line-up.

O'Driscoll will be reluctant to make changes after his side turned in their best display of the season last week.

Full-back James O'Connor filled in at centre-half, but O'Driscoll could be tempted to recall one of his specialists.
