Rotherham United will look to build on the thrilling EFL Trophy win (7-2) over Salford City, but given the number of absentees in the home team, we predict a 2-2 draw. The Millers remain without a full defensive line, as Lenny Agbaire, Jamal Baptiste, Zak Jules, and Marvin Kaleta are all sidelined. Problems extend to the attacking department as well, with Sam Nombe, Kion Etete, and Joshua Kayode missing out, leaving Rotherham short of reliable goal scorers. Even with these limitations, Rotherham’s form has remained surprisingly strong.
The Millers are unbeaten in five (W2, D3) and scoring 2.1 goals per game overall, while conceding one on average. At home they have been consistent, taking points in four of their last five, and their H2H record against the Seasiders is dominant: six wins from their last ten meetings, with Blackpool yet to beat them during that run. Blackpool arrive with problems of their own, especially in attack, as Niall Ennis and Dale Taylor remain sidelined. Their away form is concerning (W1, L3, D1), coupled with 1.8 goals conceded per away match. They do, however, remain a threat going forward, scoring in 80% of their away fixtures.
Given the aforementioned statistical data, all Over 2.5 goals, BTTS, and Rotherham or Draw betting options seem appealing.
This League 1 match will be played on Wednesday 10 December 2025 at 19:45.
