Rotherham United vs Morecambe: EFL Cup Live Stream, Form Guide, Head to Head, Schedule, Fixture and Probable Lineups

Rotherham United will host Morecambe in the first round of the EFL Cup at the New York Stadium on Tuesday (08.08.23). The Millers will begin their EFL Cup 23/24 in a positive manner after getting a thrashing at the hands of Stoke City on matchday 1 of the Championship. Meanwhile, Morecambe will mark their return to life in League Two. After oscillating between the Championship and League One for six seasons, Rotherham finally ended that sequence by finishing 19th in the Championship last season. However,  Matt Taylor’s side will try to avoid relegation this time around at any cost. Rotherham has already lost at home to Morecambe in the second round of this competition last season. Taylor and his players will be determined to avoid lightning striking twice at the opening stage. Rotherham will look to make it beyond the second round of the EFL Cup for the first time since 2009.

Morecambe, meanwhile, saw their maiden journey in England’s third tier come to an end when they were relegated on the final day of League One’s campaign. The Shrimps have managed to hold onto Derek Adams, who helped them survive the season beforehand, and they will have some confidence in bouncing back at the first attempt after beating Walsall on Saturday. The opening day encounter at the Globe Arena appeared to be heading for a share of the spoils after Danny Johnson had cancelled out Adam Mayor’s opener. But Farrend Rawson snatched all three points in injury time. Adams and his players will particularly believe themselves to be capable of causing an upset against their Championship opponents after doing so last season. But they will be more concerned with their league position this season.
