Promotion hopefuls Rotherham United will be aiming to bounce back from a disappointing opening day of the season when they host Bristol Rovers in League One on Saturday afternoon.
Despite the return of former manager Steve Evans at the end of last season and a number of high-profile summer signings, the Millers suffered a narrow 1-0 defeat at the hands of Exeter City last weekend.
It was however an impressive start to the season for Bristol Rovers as a stoppage time header from Bryant Bilongo was enough to give Matt Taylor’s side all three points against Northampton Town.
