Rotherham – Crewe

Rotherham host Crewe in what promises to be a pivotal clash in the lower half of the table. The Millers sit 16th with six points from six games, having scored nine but conceded ten, while the visitors occupy eighth place on ten points, unbeaten so far with a modest 6‑4 goal tally. For Rotherham, a win could lift them out of the relegation zone, whereas Crewe will look to extend their unbeaten run and close the gap to the playoff places. The two sides have yet to meet this season, adding an extra layer of intrigue to a fixture that could reshape the mid‑table dynamics.
