Rotherham United welcome Huddersfield Town to the New York Stadium for their next Championship game of the season tomorrow.

The Millers go into this game on the back of an away draw at Birmingham City while Huddersfield got their first three points on the board getting a home win against Nottingham Forest.

The Terriers last away game ended in a three-nil defeat at Brentford while Rotherham lost their only home game of the season with Millwall who won one-nil at the New York Stadium.

Millers Manager Paul Warne thinks that Huddersfield have had a ‘tough start’ to the season telling iFOLLOW that he is expecting a really tough game. ‘Their (Huddersfield) energy and movement are really good and our job is stop their threats and exploit their weaknesses.’

Rotherham have Clark Robertson and Trevor Clarke both back in training but this game might come too soon for them. Joe Mattock is also back training after missing out last weekend and so is Shaun MacDonald who was suffering with a back problem after Saturdays game.

City Manager Carlos Corberan told YorkshireLive that tomorrow’s game will be ‘physical’ saying, ‘They’ve (Rotherham) not conceded many and they’re a good team. We need to play very tough and very strong.’

Huddersfield will take a late decision on Jonathan Hogg who went off with an injury at the end of the first half of the win over Nottingham Forest last weekend while Christopher Schindler is also a doubt with a hamstring problem. Former Millers favourite Danny Ward has played just eighty minutes since joining from Cardiff in June suffering with hamstring problems and Lewis O’Brien is still missing with a quad injury but another former Miller Harry Toffolo should start.

Andy Woolmer from Northampton is in the middle on Saturday.
