Prediction: 2-1
Rotherham United
Against all odds, Rotheram United managed to hold Middlesbrough to a goalless draw at Riverside Stadium. The Millers failed to put an end to their six-game winless run in the Championship, but, no doubt, they regained a much-needed confidence. Rotherham United aim to move away from the danger zone and they will surely leave their hearts on the field in the relegation six-pointer against Preston. Speaking of the Lilywhites, they impressed in back-to-back wins over Wigan and Brentford, with the team scoring eight goals in total in those matches. Preston and Rotherham are level on points ahead of Matchday 15, but we believe that there is a big value in betting on the Lilywhites, who have been scoring goals for fun at their Deepdale Stadium of late. In two of their last four meetings in the English second tier Preston emerged triumphant.

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.
