Saturday’s football game at Aesseal New York Stadium pits together Rotherham United and Swansea City, the two teams who meet for the first time since January 30, 2021. Back then Swansea defeated Rotherham 3-1 in the Championship, and the visitors are seen as favourites to emerge triumphant in the new season opener as well. Central midfielder Flynn Downes could be sorely missed in the 2022/2023 season as the 23-year-old joined West Ham for a fee of €10.65m.
The Millers, on the other hand, did well to beat Crewe Alexandra 2-1 in their last warm-up game. The newcomers are tough to beat at home, but it seems as if Swansea are a more experienced side than Rotherham. A man to keep an eye on in the home team will be summer signing Conor Washington as both Olayinka Ladapo and Michael Smith have left the club in the summer transfer window.
