Blackpool vs Rotherham expert tips
Miller has stood firm against Blackpool so far as they beat them in their last 6 league meetings, including this season's win at home. On the other hand, Blackpool’s home performance doesn’t seem well. After analyzing all the facts, we anticipate Rotherham to win the match or the game to end in a draw. In this match, we can expect more than 2.5 goals as both teams have scored more than 3 goals in a face-to-face contest.
