The two sides cancelled each other out in a game of few chances at the LNER Stadium.

That gave Doncaster the chance to leapfrog Hull and move within a point of the Imps with a victory at Fleetwood, but they slipped to a surprise 3-1 loss.

Jason Lokilo, with his first goal for the club, did put Rovers ahead after eight minutes at Highbury, but Kyle Vassell and Paddy Madden struck in quick succession after the hour to turn the game in the hosts' favour. Danny Andrew wrapped up the win two minutes from time.

The loss meant Fleetwood slipped to fifth as Peterborough climbed into third - and level with Hull - by coming from behind for a 2-1 win over Ipswich at the Weston Homes Stadium.

Callum Lang struck a vital late winner for Wigan in their basement battle at Northampton. Lang netted eight minutes from time at Sixfields to earn Latics a 1-0 victory that ended their three-game losing run and lifted them above the Cobblers and level with 20th-placed Bristol Rovers.
