Blackpool vs Rotherham Predictions and Free Tips from our expert tipsters when the teams go head-to-head in the England Championship on Saturday, 11 February 2023.
Neither Blackpool nor Rotherham is having a decent form since the beginning of this campaign. They both are positioned outside the top half in the standings.
Going on, Blackpool is on a 11-game winless streak in the league and have dropped into 23rd position, 6 points and two spots away from their Saturday’s counterparts Rotherham.
Rotherham can also rely on the recent tradition since they won the previous five encounters against Blackpool. The reverse fixture ended in a 3-0 win for Rotherham.
At this venue, Rotherham is having a 100% unbeaten record against Blackpool. 60% of their h2h clashes at this venue were low-scoring.
The current scenario is different from what these two teams were in the reverse fixture. Blackpool, sitting at a worse position at the moment have the upper hand here when comparing their stats with Rotherham on the road.
Rotherham is on a five-game winless streak on the road while Blackpool recorded three unbeaten outcomes in the past five home matches.
By the looks of things, we expect a win for Blackpool despite of the h2h upper hand of Rotherham.
Three of the last five league matches of Blackpool at home and three of the last five league road trips of Rotherham had goals under 2.5 ft. Therefore, we don’t expect an over 2.5 goals display here.
Rotherham failed to score in three of the last four league matches on the road. Since we expect a low scoring match with a win for Blackpool, both teams to score option is unlikely to land here.
The h2h superiority of Rotherham wont count much here as they have a poor form in the league at present. Since Blackpool have a comparatively better form, expect them to post a three pointer on board this Saturday.
We therefore like to place Blackpool to win at 2.15 odds as the main betting pick. For the second tip, we like to place the under 2.5 goals tip at 1.73 odds.
