Sykes is out isn’t he? We do have plenty of good attacking players though.Our toughest test of the season, but one that feels like a free hit with so many players out. Rotherham are a very good side and their bouncing between league 1 and the Championship has allowed them to build a very decent squad who are well managed.
But even with players out, we have a side that can compete and will be going into this like a cup tie. We will have to be on the very top of our game defensively, but if Kane and Brannagan can get on top in the midfield, Henry, Bodin, Sykes and Whyte can cause loads of problems upfront.
As I said on the pre-match thread, I'll go with an optimistic 2 nil win. Bodin with a scrappy scuffed opener, and Tyler Goodrham coming off the bench late to score a breakaway stunner!
