Sunderland - Rotherham United betting tips and odds

A home win should not be questioned in this game. Sunderland are seen as huge favourites to register an easy win against Rotherham United and we recommend you take the generous offer of 1.69.

If betting odds are anything to go on – and they are - The Millers will likely get overrun by their opponents with little hope of winning. Considering how one-sided this matchup is, they may want to cut their losses and focus their energy elsewhere.

Sunderland were happy with how their last away game in the Championship was going by the half-time mark ($HALFTIME_RESULT). Most online bookmakers did not give them great chances of taking many positives from this clash but, all things considered, they will not have been too disappointed with a narrow, one-goal margin loss (HOME_LAST_ROUND_AWAY).

The previous Championship game The Millers played was on home grounds, but top online bookmakers were not too optimistic about their chances going in. They somehow managed to take the lead in the first half, though, and eventually turned it into a welcome draw.

The away team’s defensive record is slipping. They’ve conceded more than 5 times in their previous 3 Championship engagements. This, at least, points to this match as a decent choice for something like an Over 5 Goals bet.

The two teams last met in the previous season when Sunderland won the clash with a convincing goal difference. Their fans are expecting another clear-cut triumph and the bookmakers tend to agree.

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

If you’re feeling confident, a Draw/Home wager in the Half Time/Full Time market is the way to go. It’s a fairly risky move, but likely the best way to get some value out of the match this Saturday.
