Simon Gillett suffered a thigh strain in that game but has been passed fit, but Brian Stock (knee) and Adam Lockwood (foot) are out.
Newcastle's Alan Smith is suspended and Steven Taylor (hamstring) is still out.
But the Magpies have been boosted by the return of defender Fabricio Coloccini after a groin injury.
After back-to-back defeats and having not won in four matches, Newcastle are in danger of being dragged out of the top two unless they can pick up a much-needed victory.
Tuesday night's defeat at Scunthorpe was a real blow for the Magpies, who are carrying the pressure of being the Championship team everyone wants to beat.
Doncaster will also relish the chance to take them on and are fresh from a midweek win against Peterborough, which was their first victory in eight games.
Rovers have already beaten third-placed Cardiff this season and their passing style could frustrate Newcastle, who had problems in recent home matches against QPR and Bristol City.
