A dramatic finale against Birmingham City last weekend saw Rotherham United come close to claiming a last-gasp win after converting a late penalty, only to concede a penalty of their own three minutes later to end up drawing 1-1.
They are now on four points after three games.
Meanwhile, Huddersfield Town claimed a win in their last league game, their first of the season and a first for new manager Carlos Corberan.
Although it is early on in the season, the result of this encounter could indicate what the future holds in their respective second-tier campaigns.

Their last Championship encounter saw Huddersfield walk away with all three points, coming out on the right side of a five-goal thriller with a 3-2 victory.

Rotherham United vs Huddersfield Town Predicted XI
This could be a low-scoring match with neither side particularly clinical at the top end of the pitch. Both outfits also have resolute defences in a game that could offer up very few chances.
The match could begin, remain and end deadlocked.
