Middlesbrough to Win
Rotherham, who played as recently as Thursday evening, contest their final home game of the Championship campaign when they host Middlesbrough on Monday evening, though The Millers could struggle to give their supporters the send-off they’d like to. Boro are finishing the season strongly under Michael Carrick and having won 13 of their last 20 assignments in the division, Middlesbrough could have too much class for their struggling opponents, who have won only once in nine attempts. Side with the visitors here.
Both Teams to Score
Middlesbrough do have a slight chink in their armour on the road however, and they have failed to keep a clean sheet in each of their last 12 fixtures away from home. Boro play with plenty of incision at the other end under Carrick however, and as a result, both teams to score landed in a sizable ten of the same 12 matches. Both teams also impacted the scoresheet in six of The Millers’ last seven home tests, and our second Rotherham vs Middlesbrough prediction recommends a stake in the same domain here.

Rotherham vs Middlesbrough Team News & Injuries
Read all of the latest injury updates, Rotherham vs Middlesbrough lineups and team news for Monday’s Championship clash below.
Rotherham
Rotherham will be without Grant Hall, Conor Washington, Sean Morrison and Bailey Wright this week. The Millers lost 2-1 at home to Cardiff in their last runout, a result that leaves them just one point clear of the Championship's drop one with two games left to contest.
Predicted Lineup for Rotherham: Johansson – Peltier, Wood, Blackett, Bramall – Harding, Coventry, Lindsay, Rathbone, Bramall – Ogbene Hugill
Middlesbrough
Aaron Ramsey, Riley McGree, Dael Fry and Matt Clarke are all listed as injured for Middlesbrough at present. Boro were beaten 2-1 by playoff rivals Luton in their last match with a heavily rotated team, though they have still already secured their place in the top six and can look forward to a shot at promotion.
Predicted Lineup for Middlesbrough: Steffen – Dijksteel, Howson, Lenihan, Giles – Barlaser, Mowatt, Jones, Archer, Bola – Crooks
Player to Watch – Matt Crooks
Matt Crooks earned a start in a heavily-rotated Middlesbrough team in their defeat at Luton last time out and the 29-year-old managed to net a consolation goal to bring his tally for the campaign up to seven. Crooks will hope to see more action today as Boro rest players ahead of the playoffs.
