Here is how we predict Leeds United and Rotherham United will line up this afternoon:

To be played on Monday 2nd January 2017 at 15:00. Venue: Elland Road, Leeds

Odds: Leeds 4/9, Draw 10/3, Rotherham 6/1

Leeds United welcome Rotherham United to Elland Road today for their first Championship clash of 2017.

The Whites were left frustrated last time out as a late Aston Villa goal saw the two teams share the spoils in a match Leeds will have been desperate to win, but they do not need to wait long to get back to winning ways.

Leeds are still without midfielder Eunan O’Kane as he continues his recovery from injury but there is better news with Chris Wood, Pablo Hernandez and Kyle Bartley all in contention.

Full-back Charlie Taylor may feature but given the recent fine performances of fellow defender Gaetano Berardi, Leeds boss Garry Monk could continue with the Swiss player and hand Taylor a place on the bench.

Leeds are pushing hard for promotion while Rotherham will be hoping for three massive points in their fight against relegation.

With all that in mind here is how we expect the two sides to line up this afternoon:
