Stockport County look well-placed to continue their promotion push as they welcome struggling Rotherham. As the Millers are running down a blind alley, we predict a 3-0 home win. County have won three of their last four and edged Huddersfield 1–0 despite Callum Connolly and Arttu Hoskonen being doubtful. At home, Stockport average 1.67 points per game with a 50% win rate, scoring 1.50 goals while conceding 1.33. Their underlying data is strong too, posting 1.61 expected goals at Edgeley Park compared to 1.31 xGA, reflecting steady control in most matches.
Rotherham head into Saturday's game in desperate form after five straight league defeats, taking just 0.50 PPG overall. Their defensive issues are glaring, conceding 2.20 goals per game across all venues and failing to keep a single clean sheet this season. Away from home, the Millers have a slightly better return (0.67 PPG), but still concede 2.17 goals on average, with an xGA of 1.86, suggesting opponents regularly create high-quality chances. Offensively, they score just 1.50 goals away, offering limited threat.
Stockport also hold a slight H2H edge with two wins from four, and given the current form contrast, the hosts should control proceedings. As form and stats heavily favour the hosts, we are tempted to place our bets on Home Win, alongside Over 1.5 and Over 2.5 goals as Rotherham games average 3.30 goals overall.
This League 1 match will be played on Saturday 17 January 2026 at 15:00.
