Stoke City vs Rotherham United: EFL Championship Live Stream, Form Guide, Head to Head, Schedule, Fixture and Probable Lineups

Stoke City will begin their Championship campaign by welcoming Rotherham United to the bet365 Stadium in Staffordshire on Saturday. The Potters will be looking to kick on this season after a mid-table finish in 2022-23. While Rotherham looks set to have a battle on their hands to avoid the drop to League One. Despite threatening to pose a late playoff push in the 2022-23 Championship season, Stoke were forced to settle for a 16th-placed finish in the second tier – their joint lowest since being relegated from the Premier League in 2018. The Staffordshire-based club have moved to recruit players with Championship experience in this window. They recently announced the arrival of centre-back Luke McNally from Burnley. Neil’s men struggled at the bet365 Stadium last campaign. They managed just six home wins in 23 second-tier matches. A mixed pre-season in terms of results ended in defeat against Premier League side Everton last Saturday. Amadou Onana scored a 96th-minute winner in Staffordshire for Sean Dyche’s Toffees.

Rotherham on the other hand, is back in the Championship for back-to-back campaigns for the first time since 2016-17. The Millers achieved promotions from League One in 2018 and 2020 only to be immediately relegated in 2019 and 2021. However, the Yorkshire club got rid of their whipping-boy status in the second tier by finishing 19th in 2022-23. Right-back Fred Onyedinma has arrived from Kenilworth Road in an unrelated deal with the Hatters. Rotherham will be hoping for a repeat of their trip to Staffordshire last season, with a sixth-minute strike from midfielder Oliver Rathbone securing a maximum against Stoke in October 2022.
