Wolves aim to be party-poopers at Rotherham

The hosts are set for a record attendance in their first Championship game at the New York Stadium.

Their previous high was for the Yorkshire derby against Sheffield United when 11,758 watched the hosts' win 3-1 last year.

And with Wolves taking at least 1,700 and less than 200 tickets available for home fans, it will be a party atmosphere.

The teams came up from League One together last season with Rotherham earning back-to-back promotions via the play-offs following their escape from League Two in 2013.

Molineux boss Kenny Jackett knows the hosts will want to make it a day to savour, but is out to ensure his men continue their own rise.

He said: "Rotherham have come up and will want to establish themselves in the Championship. It will be the first Championship game at the New York Stadium and some occasion.

"But similarly we will take a good crowd and they'll get right behind our lads as well and that's a big thing.

"It'll be a big day for them and they'll want to do very well. The achievement they've had, getting successive promotions, is a terrific one and they will not want to let it fall now. They'll want to keep that momentum going.

"For all of this season there'll be a real excitement about the place because of the fact of where they are and that they are playing against so many big clubs.

"They would have been used to playing us from last year but there are many big clubs in the Championship.

"We know tomorrow is going to be a cracking game. For us we need to earn our supporters' respect and backing and only our quality and effort will do that."

Rotherham lost their opening day game 1-0 at Derby before a 1-0 League Cup win over Fleetwood on Tuesday.

The last time Wolves went to the New York Stadium they drew 3-3 as Nouha Dicko scored twice against them while on loan at the Millers from Wigan.

The striker also scored a hat-trick against Rotherham in Wolves' crazy 6-4 win at Molineux in April as they closed in on the title. And Dicko opened his account for this season in Tuesday's 3-2 Capital One Cup defeat to Northampton.

But despite the 22-year-old's hot streak in the last two fixtures between the sides, Jackett wants all of the team to contribute goals.

He said: "All of our front players are looking to get goals, which they all did last season. Sako was 12, Jacobs and Henry were around the nine or ten mark and Dave Edwards got nine.

"We are looking for all those positions to score. If the likes of Lee Evans, Kevin McDonald, Jack Price could add to it – and certainly Matt Doherty can score and Sam Ricketts scored an excellent goal the other night – that would help.

"But the identity of the front three or four players has to be assists and goals."

Tuesday's shock loss to Northampton hit Wolves' momentum after their 1-0 win over Norwich on Sunday and Jackett insists they must learn from losing to the League Two side.

He said: "The disappointment isn't gone when you lose a game and you can't forget about it. What you have to do is have an accurate assessment of it.

"There might be things you did well, or certain individuals who did well. After that you have to work out what you need to do with that performance to turn it into a winning one.

"That's where we are now, certainly going into Rotherham, Fulham and Cardiff.

"We had a good result against Norwich, we were on the right lines. I made several changes, keeping the same 18 but just shuffling them around. "We're disappointed we didn't progress in the cup competition and we have to make sure we learn our lessons."
