Swansea City vs Rotherham United Prediction: Swansea have lost their last two games

Swansea City is looking to return to their winning form in the Championship when they play against Rotherham United at home. Despite both teams displaying inconsistency this season, it is crucial for them to regain their momentum if they hope to compete. Rotherham United is currently ranked 20th with 36 points, while the hosts have a better position, standing at 12th with 42 points.

Swansea City’s Form

The importance of Swansea City's match against Rotherham United in the Championship has significantly increased, which may have been unthinkable for fans after the World Cup break. In October, Russell Martin's team climbed to fourth place in the table with seven wins out of nine games, but things have since taken a turn for the worse after their win against Cardiff City. The club has experienced a tumultuous period both on and off the pitch, causing them to drift further away from the play-off places. Although they are currently five places higher in the league standings compared to last season, they are eight points away from the top six and only two points better off than at the same stage last year. This demonstrates the detrimental impact of a run of just three wins in 17 league matches. The defeat to Stoke was their fourth in five games and has left supporters frustrated. The reality is that Swansea desperately needs a strong performance and result against Rotherham to put a stop to their alarming slide.

Rotherham United’s Form

Rotherham United's efforts to avoid relegation from the Championship have been dealt a setback with the announcement that Grant Hall, a key loan defender, will be out of action for a considerable period - and potentially for the remainder of the season. Hall sustained a hamstring injury and had to be substituted during Tuesday's 2-1 victory over Sunderland. A recent scan revealed a significant problem. Manager Matt Taylor will be hoping to secure some points in the upcoming match against Swansea City. Rotherham United's overall performance this season in the Championship has been poor, with 8 wins, 12 draws, and 13 losses, placing them 20th out of 24 teams in the Championship Table. In addition, Rotherham United's away form has been very weak, with only 2 wins, 7 draws, and 8 losses. So far this season, Rotherham United has scored a total of 36 goals in the Championship.
