RUFC - Head-to-Head v Bristol Rovers

Rotherham United welcome Bristol Rovers for their first visit to the New York Stadium on Saturday.

The sides have met fifty-two times in the League in the past with Rovers winning twenty of those games to the Millers' eighteen.

The last time that the sides met on Rotherham soil was at Millmoor in March 2001. Richie Barker scored the first goal of the game a minute before half-time with Jeff Minton, on his Millers debut, scoring twice in the second half to give the Millers a three-nil win.
