Although Rotherham is likely facing relegation to the third tier, Leam Richardson expects better performance from his team after their defeat on Good Friday. Preston North End secured a victory at Deepdale by scoring three goals in the first half. Rotherham's goal drought continued, with them not scoring for over 500 minutes. Despite the 19-point gap to safety with seven games left, Richardson and his team are determined to fight for their roles at the club. Richardson is expected to make changes to his Rotherham XI, with players like Cohen Bramall, Andy Rinomhota, and Tom Eaves vying for starting positions. Shane Ferguson may also be considered to join the lineup, possibly in a back three formation.
Rotherham Predicted Lineup
Johansson; Peltier, Odoffin, Humphreys, Bramall; Nombe, Lindsay, Rinomhota, Clucas, Ferguson; Eaves
Millwall form
Neil Harris' appointment at Millwall has turned their season around, earning 11 points in six games.

Kevin Nisbet will be sidelined due to injury, allowing Zian Flemming and Michael Obafemi to maintain their spots in the attack.
