Rotherham United kick off the new season at Don Valley against Lincoln City.
Both sides have had a reshuffle during the summer and there could be quite a few debuts tomorrow.
Ronnie Moore will be hoping his side have a good start to the season and go one better than last by finishing in the top three while Chris Sutton will want his Imps` side to finish higher than the nineteenth spot they ended last season in.
