Our prediction for this League 1 match:
Rotherham United and AFC Wimbledon take on each other at Aesseal New York Stadium on day 10 of the new League One campaign. The Millers are undefeated in the previous three league fixtures, but they need to start winning on a regular basis if they are to return to the Championship. Defender Wes Harding is banned for the match following his red card in the draw with Crewe. The Dons, on the other hand, aim to make amends for back-to-back losses to Plymouth and Shrewsbury.
AFC Wimbledon have been struggling at the back of late, and seeing that Rotherham are regarded as good hosts, the visitors are unlikely to grab something from Tuesday’s clash. All Marsh, Lawrence, and Rudoni are pushing for a start for the visiting team. You should bear in mind that Rotherham scored six goals in total in the previous three meetings with AFC Wimbledon.

He made his debut with the Northern Ireland national team on February 9, 2011, coming from the bench in a 3-0 loss to Scotland. His main position is centre-back, but he is capable of producing fine showings at right-back as well.
Highlighted Team (AFC Wimbledon):
Based in Kingston upon Thames, AFC Wimbledon are a professional football club that compete in the third tier of English football, commonly known as the League One.

AFC Wimbledon play their home games in blue shirts and blue shorts, whilst the colour of their away kit is yellow. The Dons won the Lanes Cup on two occasions (2007/2008, 2011/2012), Supporters Direct Cup three times (2002/2003, 2005/2006, 2009/2010), while lifting the Surrey Seniors Cup in the 2004/2005 season.
