Already-relegated Rotherham United journey to the Ashton Gate Stadium to face Bristol City in the penultimate game of the 2023-24 EFL Championship campaign on Saturday.
While the Millers’ fate had already been sealed, the hosts seek to secure a top-half finish for the first time since the 2019-20 campaign.
Bristol City were involved in a share of the spoils for the second consecutive game as they played out a 1-1 draw with Norwich City last Saturday.
With that result, the Robins have gone six consecutive games without defeat, claiming three wins and three draws since a 2-0 loss against West Bromwich Albion on March 16.
With 59 points from 44 matches, Bristol City are currently 12th in the EFL Championship table and will be looking to end the season strong as they push for a top-half finish.
On the other hand, Rotherham United played out a goalless draw with Birmingham City in a bottom-of-the-table clash last weekend.
Before that, the Millers were on a three-match losing streak, suffering consecutive defeats against Plymouth Argyle, West Bromwich Albion and Swansea City respectively.
Rotherham United are currently rooted to the bottom of the EFL Championship table, having picked up just 24 points from their 44 matches.
