Match Facts

Preston have won one of their last eight league games against Rotherham United (D4 L3), a 2-1 away win last season.
Three of the last four league meetings between Preston and Rotherham at Deepdale have been drawn – the Millers won the other 2-1 in February 2021.
Preston North End are unbeaten in their last four league matches on Good Friday (W2 D2) since a 4-1 defeat against Sheffield Wednesday in 2018.
Rotherham United have won only one of their last 18 away league games played on Good Friday (D5 L12), a 2-1 win over AFC Wimbledon in April 2012.
Rotherham have won just three of their 38 league games this season (D11 L24) and faced 143 more shots on target than they have had themselves (87 on target, 230 faced), the worst differential by a team in a Championship season that Opta has on record (2013-14 onwards).
