Dressing room Rotherham

George Thomason returns to captain the Whites as Wanderers bid to make it a hat-trick of wins and stay in the play-off places.

Thomason came off the bench early in last Saturday’s victory over Bristol Rovers following an injury to defender Will Forrester, who is facing a spell on the sidelines.

Gethin Jones also made an impact off the bench – creating the winner for Aaron Collins – and he returns as the second change to the starting line-up made by boss Steven Schumacher.

Carlos Mendes Gomes is named among the substitute along with the returning Alex Murphy and fit-again defender Ricardo Almeida Santos who features in a squad for the first time under Schumacher after being absent since mid-January.

Mid-table Rotherham are also seeking a third successive win under interim manager Matt Hamshaw.

Wanderers: Baxter, Jones, Thomason ©, Johnston, Sheehan, Dacres-Cogley, Osei-Tutu, Morley, Forino, Collins, McAtee. Substitutes: Southwood, Murphy, Almeida Santos, Mendes Gomes, Dempsey, Etete, Randall.

Rotherham: Dawson, Rafferty, James, Powell, Nombe, Wilks, Sibley, Odoffin (c), Holmes, Humphreys, Mpanzu. Substitutes: Phillips, Hugill, Douglas, Hull, Richardson, Duncan.

Referee: Ross Joyce
