Leeds United will be looking to keep their hopes of an immediate return to the English top flight alive this week when they face Rotherham United away from home.
Rotherham United are one of the sides who are contented with just staying in the English second division. The Millers finished 19th last season, but things have got even worse this term as they currently sit in the bottom three. Prior to the international break, Matt Taylor's side travelled to Watford looking to end a run of three games without a win. Rotherham went into half-time trailing by two goals and conceded three more in the second half.
Looking to bounce back from this humiliating defeat, they will host Leeds United who are desperate to return to the Premier League. The Whites had a slow start to the season, failing to win any of their first three games but Daniel Farke's men have been great to watch lately. Leeds went into the international break on a run of three straight wins and what makes this run so special is that they beat league leaders Leicester during this time.
Rotherham United vs Leeds United Betting Tips: Both teams to score
Rotherham have had no problems when it comes to scoring goals on home soil this season. Matt Taylor's side will enter this game with plenty of confidence as they boast at least one goal in all of their eight home league games so far this season. However, they finished just one of those fixtures without conceding.
Defending remains a major problem for Leeds United as it was during their spell in the Premier League. The Whites went into the international break with just one clean sheet from their last six games. Both teams scored in four of those games.

Rotherham United team news
Head coach Matt Taylor is expected to make wholesale changes to his Rotherham side that started the humiliating defeat to Watford last time out.
Samuel Raymond Clucas was taken off after just 33 minutes, so the Englishman is one of the players who will have to take a seat on the bench this week.
Oliver Rathbone is just one caution away from a one-match ban, but otherwise the visitors have no problems ahead of the visit of Leeds.
