A struggling Rotherham United face mid-table Coventry City as both teams look to brush aside their shambolic start to the campaign.
With just one win from their opening 11 encounters, Rotherham United are seeded in the second last spot in the EFL Championship. Winless since their 2-1 victory against Norwich City, Rotherham United have a daunting task ahead of them if they want to get out of the relegation zone.
Coventry City, on the other hand, enter the contest on the back of a narrow defeat against Bristol City. Before their visit to Bristol, Coventry had won two games and drawn two helping them climb up in the league. A win against a struggling Rotherham United would see them rise up till the 9th position. With the table currently jam-packed, Coventry would be confident of winning the encounter and climbing up the ladder.
