Bristol City to Win
Bristol City’s overall form has been patchy of late, though The Robins have been more convincing at Ashton Gate, where they have gone eight games without defeat. Rotherham meanwhile, are without a victory in 11 attempts on their travels and their knack for coming unstuck on the road could hamper their chances again on Saturday. With home advantage to enjoy, our first Bristol City vs Rotherham prediction backs the hosts to gather maximum points.
Both Teams to Score – No
Rotherham just cannot find a winning formula on the road and The Millers’ lack of cutting edge has been really holding them back in that regard. Rotherham have failed to score in each of their last three away assignments in the Championship and on Saturday they visit a Bristol City side that has kept clean sheets in three of their last six matches on home soil. Rotherham could be the latest team to find the going tough at Ashton Gate and a wager on both teams not to score could be worth pursuing.
