Rotherham will find encouragement in Ipswich's previous loss in Yorkshire, as their strong performance at home will be crucial in their efforts to improve their position. The majority of their points this season have been earned on familiar territory, with their only victory coming against Norwich City when they were at the top of the table. However, in their last six league matches, Rotherham has been unsuccessful, losing four times and failing to score more than one goal in any game. Nevertheless, their recent 1-1 draw against Southampton before the break was an important result that has kept them closer to 21st place and above.
Rotherham United Predicted Lineup
Johansson; Lembikisa, Peltier, Hall, Bramall; Onyedinma, Tiehi, Cafu, Rathbone, Green; Hugill
Ipswich Town form
The majority of Ipswich supporters may anticipate a decline in their team's performance after failing to secure promotion back to the Championship earlier this year. However, there is cause for optimism as the team has achieved six wins and one draw in all competitions following the first international break of the season. Despite playing three out of their last four Championship games at Portman Road, Ipswich has had to perform well against tough opponents such as Blackburn Rovers, Hull City, and Preston North End. They have managed to score a total of 10 goals during these matches, making them the top attacking team in the division. However, Kieran McKenna acknowledges the need for further improvements in their away games. Although they have secured 1-0 victories against Sheffield Wednesday and Southampton since the beginning of September, they were held to a 1-1 draw by Huddersfield Town on September 30.
Ipswich Town Predicted Lineup
Hladky; Williams, Woolfenden, Burgess, Davis; Morsy, Luongo; Jackson, Chaplin, Broadhead; Hirst
