No new injury concerns for Rotherham ahead of Wednesday clash

Rotherham boss Paul Warne has no fresh injury problems ahead of Saturday’s South Yorkshire derby clash with Sheffield Wednesday.

Defender Clark Robertson is expected to be fit despite having to contend with a persistent ankle problem, while Ryan Williams was an unused substitute for Tuesday night’s 2-2 draw at Hull after shaking off a hamstring injury.

Warne is also nursing “two or three” of his most regular performers through training as he attempts to keep them as fresh as possible for the season run-in as the Millers battle to stay in the Sky Bet Championship.

However, he is happy to have positive selection problems with his side having put together a three-game unbeaten run culminating in a spirited fightback from 2-0 down to claim a point at the KCOM Stadium.

Wednesday skipper Tom Lees could return after missing the last two games through injury.

The defender sat out the goalless draws with Reading and Millwall with a shin problem, but manager Steve Bruce is hopeful he could be available this weekend.

Loan signing Rolando Aarons is pushing for a first start after making two appearances as a substitute, while fellow January arrivals Dominic Iorfa and Achraf Lazaar are yet to be handed debuts for the club.

Long-term absentees Sam Winnall, Gary Hooper and Kieran Lee are all being carefully managed as they work their way back from injury.
