Norwich City take on Rotherham United in what should be a comfortable afternoon for the home side, if the data remains consistent. The Canaries have come through a very tough spell between late September and November, when they lost eight of 11 games and manager David Wagner was under huge pressure in the head coach chair. Since then though, they have been far better, losing just five games since then, winning 11 and drawing 5. That kind of form has moved them into 7th in the Championship table and right on the fringes of the playoff places in the Championship table. They are unbeaten at home since losing 3-1 to Blackburn Rovers on the 5th November 2023. 

Rotherham come into this game still looking for their first away win of the season in the Championship. They have picked up just 4 points from their 18 away games this season and have scored just 13 goals on the road, conceding a huge 48 in those games too. Leam Richardson laid into his players following their latest defeat, a 5-0 thrashing away to Coventry City, where he threatened to play some of the clubs younger players if the more seasoned professionals were not interested in following instructions on the field. A damning verdict on his team. The trip to Norwich City doesn't make their next task any easier given the comparative home and away records of the two teams. It will be a long afternoon for Millers fans based on how things have gone this season.
