Burnley will host Rotherham United at Turf Moor on Wednesday (November 2) night in the Championship.
The hosts are enjoying a brilliant run of form at the moment and will fancy themselves as early promotion favourites. Burnley picked up a 2-1 comeback win over Reading in their last game, with summer signings Manuel Benson and Anass Zaroury getting on the scoresheet to overturn a second-half deficit. Burnley are atop the standings with 35 points from 18 games.
Rotherham, meanwhile, have had mixed results this season but have struggled for form of late. They were beaten 1-0 by Cardiff City in their last league outing and were rather toothless in attack, managing just three shots all game, none of which hit the target.
The visitors have picked up 22 points from 17 league games this season and sit mid-table in 13th place.
