Rotherham vs Harrogate: EFL Trophy Preview - Can the Millers Bounce Back?
Rotherham United are looking to bounce back from their disappointing league defeat when they host Harrogate Town in the EFL Trophy on Tuesday. The Millers will be hoping for a much-needed victory to get back on track after losing to Shrewsbury in their last outing. Harrogate, meanwhile, are fresh off a win in the league and will be looking to cause an upset at the New York Stadium.
Rotherham's Woes
Rotherham's recent form has been inconsistent, with the team failing to string together a run of wins. Paul Warne's side has struggled to score goals in recent weeks, managing just one goal in their last three matches. The Millers will be hoping to find their shooting boots against Harrogate, who have conceded a fair number of goals this season.
Harrogate's Surprise
Harrogate Town have been a pleasant surprise this season, exceeding expectations under Simon Weaver. The Sulphurites are currently sitting in 10th place in League Two, and their recent form has been impressive. They are known for their attacking style of play and will be confident of getting a result against Rotherham.
Key Players
Rotherham will be relying on the likes of Michael Smith, Chiedozie Ogbene, and Ben Wiles to lead the charge. Harrogate, on the other hand, will be looking to Jack Muldoon, George Thomson, and Luke Armstrong to cause problems for the Rotherham defense.
Prediction
This promises to be a tight encounter, with both teams eager for a win. Rotherham will have the home advantage, but Harrogate's recent form suggests they will be no pushovers. With the EFL Trophy being a valuable competition for both sides, we expect a closely fought contest. We're going for a draw.
