On Friday evening, Rotherham United will attempt to delay their Championship relegation for another round in a game against Plymouth Argyle. The visitors sit at the 21st spot on the leaderboard and also risk a class reduction. Huddersfield and Sheffield Wednesday are within a victory range.
Four points in the last three matches have certainly been a step in the right direction for Liam Richardson's charges, but time is inexorably approaching the end of the championship, where little depends on Rotherham. The hosts have a long list of injured players, including 8 main team members.
Jan Foster left his position as head coach after a series of failures, having held the helm for three months. Football Director Neil Dewspit has now stepped into the role, and he will try to end a six-game winless streak. Alfie Divine will miss this encounter because of a disqualification, and Darko Gyabi due to injury.
Despite all problems, the hosts know how to attack and score. The visitors are in poor form right now, and a match against the main outsider could significantly correct the situation. However, Rotherham, after the last tour, should be riding a positive wave, and with the support of their fans, they will do anything to postpone their official relegation. Individual total over (0,5) would be safer than a home team victory, but it also has a good chance of succeeding.
