Rochdale and Tranmere Rovers are separated by 15 places, 15 points, 44 miles and deeply contrasting opinions on Keith Hill; the Dale, though, have arguably played the more enterprising football this season than their visitors from the Wirral. Why, then, is there such a gulf between the two sides? Rovers possess the more experienced, reliable figures in all departments, on and off the field, whereas the hosts are very much finding their way in a season of transition. Tranmere have boosted their promotion hopes further by a statement signing of Burton striker Kane Hemmings, while Rochdale have lost their own striker in top goalscorer Jake Beesley. 2:0
Ross Doohan has started between the sticks recently, even with Joe Murphy back from injury. Josh Andrews could start up top after Jake Beesley went to Blackpool. Aidy White could start at left wing-back in the absence of Jimmy Keohane.
