# Predicted Villa XI: Rotherham (H)

Aston Villa continue their quest for promotion on Tuesday evening when they take on Rotherham United at Villa Park.

Steve Bruce’s men have drawn four of their last five matches, so he really needs all three points tomorrow as the calls for him to be sacked are getting louder with each passing game.

If they fail to pick up a win against newly-promoted Rotherham, he can probably start thinking about taking a nice holiday somewhere warm and exotic this winter.

However, as Frank Lampard’s Derby found out on Saturday, it won’t be as easy as some people think. The Millers may lack the skill that other Championship teams such as Villa and Derby possess, but they make up for that with sheer determination and a lot of stubbornness.

Having said this, with the quality that Bruce has at his disposal, anything less than 3 points tomorrow evening will be unacceptable.

Here is our predicted Villa XI for Tuesday’s match against Rotherham United.
