Middlesbrough - Rotherham United predictions

It’s quite easy to predict that Middlesbrough will take the 3 points here. Though a different result is not entirely impossible, it would still be quite a notable upset.

With a price of 12.51 on an away win among most online sportsbooks, it’s clear Rotherham United will likely not fare well against Middlesbrough. Even a draw seems to be too optimistic for the away team.

Middlesbrough are coming off from an exciting victory against Millwall , who were considered favourites. The game seemed like it could have gone either way at half-time, but Middlesbrough secured a sizable lead that ended with a stunning 1:3 away win.

The Millers are coming off from a narrow home loss in their previous match against Stoke City. The away team secured an early lead and carried it into a 0:1 triumph. Considering the 4.25 on The Millers winning, though, it’s hard to be surprised.

The hosts have been careful not to let their goalscoring stats slip. They’ve scored more than 5 times during the last 3 matches, indicating consistent offensive results.

The Millers can’t really boast a great record when it comes to playing as visitors. They conceded upwards of 5 goals in their most recent 3 away games. Considering they’re heading into another away game, that’s cause for concern.

Earlier in the season, Middlesbrough lost an away game against Rotherham United, though it was with a relatively small goal difference. Most betting predictions agree that things will go differently this time, especially with the 1.28 odds for a home win in mind.

With no injuries or suspensions to deal with, both teams will be able to give their all this Saturday.

Decent offers are in short supply for this match, so our best tip is to risk an HT/FT bet and go for Draw/Home. It’s quite a bold offer to take at odds of 4.50, but the betting value makes it interesting.
