Rotherham – Accrington ST

Rotherham host a struggling Accrington Stanley in what promises to be a tight contest at the New York Stadium. The home side sit 16th with six points from one win, three draws and two defeats, having scored nine and conceded ten, while Accrington sit just above the drop zone in 21st place with five points, a goal difference of minus three after netting ten and letting in 13. Both teams have only managed a single victory this season, so the encounter could easily turn on a single moment. Historically the two clubs have been evenly matched, and with relegation battles looming for each, the stakes are high for a result that could lift one side out of the bottom half. A point for either side would be a welcome boost, but a win could dramatically reshape the lower‑table landscape.
