Huddersfield Town vs Rotherham Prediction & Betting Tips - Championship
by Devesh Jaganath | in Championship Predictions
A high-stakes bottom-of-the-table clash is set to take centre stage at the John Smith’s Stadium, where Huddersfield will play host to Rotherham on Thursday night. This one’s already shaping up to be a hard-fought battle between two teams separated by just five points in a relegation battle that includes no less than seven teams currently in the mix for the drop. The hosts are rock bottom of the league with 22 points in 23 games played this season. Their record to date includes 13 losses, four draws, and six wins. Huddersfield’s recent form has been slightly better than earlier this season, managing to secure two wins in their last five matches, along with a draw and two losses. They will be going into this match off the back of an impressive win away to Preston on Boxing Day and will be hoping to produce back-to-back victories for the first time this season. Their defence has been relatively good this term, letting in just 30 goals, which is less than the likes of Swansea and Reading, who currently sit in mid-table. However, their major issue has been at the other end of the pitch, where they’ve only managed to score 21 goals so far, which is the joint lowest in the league.
Rotherham aren't much better off. They come into this one in 19th place with 27 points, having played one game more than their hosts. Rotherham has also won just six matches so far this season, with only one coming in their last ten attempts. The visitors put up a resilient display in their Boxing Day fixture at home to Stoke City, drawing 2-2 after an unfortunate late own goal from Lee Peltier. Their form on the road has provided little to be admired, delivering just one win all season. The last time that these two teams met was in the reverse fixture back in mid-October, where Rotherham came away with a 2-1 win. If they were to follow up that result away from home, it would move them five points above the relegation zone for the time being and give them something to build on leading up to the January transfer window. Both sides will have their sights firmly set on a win in this match which should make for an entertaining 90 minutes.
