Head-to-Head – Millers v Bristol Rovers

|

Rotherham United welcome Bristol Rovers for their third visit to the New York Stadium the last one being in League One in April 2018 when goals from Michael Smith and Caolan Lavery gave the hosts a two-nil win.

January 2013 at the New York Stadium saw Rovers win three-one, a game in which Claude Davis had a bit of a debut nightmare for the Millers. The tall defender bundled over Ryan Brunt in the area to give the visitors a forty-third minute penalty which Lee Brown duly scored. Claude then got a second yellow and was given an early bath before half-time. Ellis Harrison and Joe Anyinsah made it three-nil with substitute David Noble grabbing a consolation goal on seventy-three minutes.

Rovers visited the Millers temporary home at Don Valley just once in February 2012 with the only goal of the game coming on the stroke of full-time when Andy Dorman scored for the visitors.

The last time that the sides met at Millmoor was in March 2001. Richie Barker scored the first goal of the game a minute before half-time with Jeff Minton, on his Millers debut, scoring twice in the second half to give the Millers a three-nil win.
