Our prediction for this Championship match:
Buoyed by a 3-0 win over Coventry City, Birmingham City will look to give fans yet another reason to celebrate when they take on Rotherham United in the Championship round 44. The Blues are determined to avoid relegation and a win over the rock-bottom side will see them move one step closer to meeting the goal. Even though the likes of Oliver Burke, Lucas Jutkiewicz, Marc Roberts, and Alfie Chang continue to miss out with injuries, away win should be considered as Rotherham head into Saturday’s clash with the lack of motivation.
The Millers are having a season to forget, with the team failing to secure the Championship survival and given their shaky defence, we believe that there is a big value in betting on the relegation-threatened visitors. The likes of Christ Tiehi, Jordan Hugill, Peter Kioso, Sean Morrison, Tyler Blackett, Grant Hall, and Andre Green continue to miss out with injuries.
Highlighted Team (Rotherham):
Rotherham United are an English club that compete in the Championship. Rotherham United are located in Rotherham, South Yorkshire and they play their home games at New York Stadium and the capacity of the venue is 12,021.
The club was founded in 1925 as a merger between Rotherham County and Rotherham Town. The colour of Rotherham’s home kit was originally yellow and black, but nowadays they were red and white jerseys. The Millers made it to the FA Cup fifth round on two occasions (1952/1953, 1967/1968) and they have yet to play in the Premier League.
Rotherham United have won the Football League One twice (1950/1951, 1980/1981), but the club’s biggest success is participation in the 1960/1961 League Cup final. Sheffield United are regarded as Rotherham United’s fiercest rivals, but the likes of Sheffield Wednesday and Doncaster could be considered Rotherham’s big rivals as well.
