Prediction: 1-0
Rotherham
Stoke City and Rotherham United square off against each other at Bet365 Stadium in what is expected to be one of the most interesting games of Saturday’s program. The Potters aim to make a flying start to the new Championship campaign, but they will have to prove their worth on the field. New signing Ryan Mmaee is eager to leave his mark on the team, along with fellow summer recruit Andre Vidigal, who is also expected to make a significant impact.
The likes of Nick Powell, Demeaco Duhaney, Morgan Fox, and Tom Edwards have left the club in the summer transfer window. The Millers, on the other hand, are not regarded as good travellers and given their 13-game winless run on the road in the English-second tier, home win should be considered. A man to keep an eye on in the away team will be Fred Onyendinma, who joined the club from Luton Town.
Highlighted Player (Jack Bonham):
Jack Bonham is a professional footballer who was born in Stevenage on the 14th of September, 1993. The 26-year-old, although having born in England, is an Irish International and has featured for the Republic of Ireland's Under-17 team five times.
At the club level, he began his youth career with Watford and signed his first professional contract in September 2010 at the age of 17. Bonham's first-ever professional appearance came on the 4th of May, 2013 as a substitute against Leeds United in the final game of the 12/13 Championship season.
This appearance marked the 1.92 m standing goalkeeper's only appearance in a Watford shirt. Bonham then went on to play for clubs like Brentford, Carlisle United and Bristol Rovers before eventually joining Gillingham at the start of the 2019 season on a two-year contract. He's since featured nine times for the club and kept two clean sheets.
Highlighted Team (Rotherham):
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.
