Rotherham United Preview
This season, Rotherham United has been a team that has not fared as well as it was expected. Indeed, it currently occupies the 21st place in the Championship standings. The team has played 32 matches so far, and it has attained 7 wins, achieved 12 draws, and suffered 13 losses. This record has given the team 33 points this season.
In terms of goals, it has scored 34 and allowed 44, for a total goal difference of -10. If Rotherham wins this match, it could move up one position in the standings to finish above Cardiff City.
Still, it must be taken into account that the last five Championship matches the team has played have not been the best. Either way, there have not suffered many crushing defeats. The team has a record of three draws, 1-1 against Watford, 0-0 against Sheffield United and 0-0 against Blackpool, and two defeats, 2-1 against Reading and 0-2 against Coventry City. In reality, there has not been much difference between the team’s home and away performances, and it should be noted that it has scored just two goals in five games.
Possible lineup (3-4-3): Viktor Johansson; Lee Peltier, Bailey Wright, Cameron Humphreys; Hakeem Odofin, Cohen Bramall, Tariqe Fosu-Henry, Oliver Rathbone; Conor Coventry, Conor Washington, Jordan Hugill.
Betting on Sunderland
The Sunderland team is going through one of its best moments of the season. This team is in fifth place in the Championship standings with 49 points, which it has attained in 32 matches played. Sunderland has a record of 13 wins, 10 draws and 9 defeats. Additionally, the team scored 47 goals, giving them an average of 1.4 goals per game, and it has allowed 34 goals, for a total goal difference of 13. If this team wins the game against Rotherham United, it could move up to fourth place in the standings.
However, its recent results have been far superior to those of its upcoming rivals. The team has won three of five matches played: 2-0 against Middlesbrough, 1-0 against Reading, and 0-3 against Queens Park Rangers. Also, it has drawn two times, one against Millwall 0-0, and one against Bristol City 1-1. These results have given the team a five match undefeated streak. The Sunderland team has also scored 8 goals in these matches, which gives it a real advantage over Rotherham United.
Possible Sunderland lineup (3-5-2): Anthony Patterson; Danny Batth, Daniel Ballard, Ajibola-Joshua Alese; Trai Hume, Patrick Roberts, Daniel Neil, Édouard Michut, Jack Clarke; Joe Gelhardt, Amad Diallo.
