Rotherham United will be eager to bounce back from a 1-0 defeat to Exeter City when they host Gillingham in League Two round 10. The Millers managed just seven attempts and 0.47 xG in that loss, but their performances have generally been more convincing at home. Brandon Cover’s return from international duty is a welcome boost for the hosts, who will be determined to improve their attacking output.
The Gills, meanwhile, travel to South Yorkshire after playing out a goalless draw with Newport County. Garath McCleary picked up a knock in that encounter, leaving teenage forward Sheldon Kendall ready to step up if required. Gillingham have been reasonably competitive away from home, averaging 1.25 points per game on their recent trips, but they will have a big fish to fry in Saturday's clash.
With Rotherham winning six of the last seven meetings between the sides, we are tempted to bet on Home Win. Additionally, Rotherham to Score First and Over 2.5 goals (71% H2H) markets seem interesting.
This League 2 match will be played on Saturday 10 October 2026 at 15:00.
