Prediction: 2-1
Rotherham
Lincoln City and Rotherham United face each other at LNER Stadium in a postponed League One fixture. Lincoln City rolled over Cambridge United 5-1 at the weekend, with the team putting an end to their three-game losing run in style. The Imps aim to give fans yet another reason for celebration, and we are positive that they will adopt an attack-minded approach in Tuesday’s clash as well. Since Michael Appleton has a full squad to choose from, home win should definitely be considered.
The Millers, on the other hand, have been having their ups and downs in the first half of the season, with the team recording three wins while suffering three defeats in the process. Considering that Rotherham failed to impress in a 4-2 loss to Fleetwood at the weekend, we are tempted to put our money on the hosts. Mikel Miller is banned for the visitors.

Rotherham United are an English club that compete in the Championship. Rotherham United are located in Rotherham, South Yorkshire and they play their home games at New York Stadium and the capacity of the venue is 12,021.
The club was founded in 1925 as a merger between Rotherham County and Rotherham Town. The colour of Rotherham’s home kit was originally yellow and black, but nowadays they were red and white jerseys. The Millers made it to the FA Cup fifth round on two occasions (1952/1953, 1967/1968) and they have yet to play in the Premier League.
Rotherham United have won the Football League One twice (1950/1951, 1980/1981), but the club’s biggest success is participation in the 1960/1961 League Cup final. Sheffield United are regarded as Rotherham United’s fiercest rivals, but the likes of Sheffield Wednesday and Doncaster could be considered Rotherham’s big rivals as well.
