Rotherham United and Nottingham Forest will trade tackles at the New York Stadium on Tuesday in a matchday 32 EFL Championship fixture.
The hosts come into this fixture on the back of a 1-0 loss away to table-toppers Norwich City. A first-half strike by Teemu Pukki was enough to give the Canaries all three points.
That defeat made it three consecutive losses for Rotherham United which saw them drop down to 22nd on the table.
Nottingham Forest, by contrast, bounced back from their loss to Swansea City last week by defeating Blackburn Rovers 1-0 on Saturday. Alex Mighten's first-half goal helped Forest climb up to 17th spot on the standing.
