In the EFL Championship, Rotherham United faces Cardiff City on Saturday at the AESSEAL New York Stadium in an effort to rebound from consecutive defeats.
The Millers have suffered consecutive defeats to Preston North End and Birmingham City after going three league games undefeated.
This has seen them drop to a twentieth situation in the association table, with 40 focuses from 37 games, only five clear of the transfer zone. They could fall into the bottom three if they suffer another setback this weekend.
Cardiff, on the other hand, has not only failed to win their last two league games but also has fewer points than Rotherham and is one position behind them in the standings.
The Bluebirds were beaten 2-0 by Preston prior to retaliating from an early shortfall in a 1-1 draw with West Brom.
