Rotherham United vs Blackpool - Joe Newell will not be risked by Rotherham
Posted Friday, May 04, 2018 by PA
Rotherham will not risk Joe Newell as they close their regular Sky Bet League One campaign against Blackpool.
The influential midfielder has a sore groin and the Millers will protect him ahead of their play-off challenge.
Left-back Joe Mattock should get a run out after a hamstring injury which has kept him out since Good Friday.
Darren Potter and Jamie Proctor are long-term injury victims as Paul Warne’s men look to lock down fourth position and therefore a home tie in the semi-final second leg.
Blackpool are without strikers Kyle Vassell and Armand Gnanduillet.
Vassell suffered a hamstring injury in the warm-up to last weekend’s 1-1 draw with Shrewsbury and his replacement Gnanduillet went on to suffer a similar problem.
That will mean Nathan Delfouneso and Mark Cullen will lead the line at the AESSEAL New York Stadium.
Boss Gary Bowyer, who used to play for Rotherham, has no other injuries to contend with as they aim to finish their season with a sixth game unbeaten.
