Swansea vs Rotherham Prediction & Betting Tips - Championship

Prediction published on 13/04/2024, 01:35  by Ian John in Championship Predictions

Swansea City host relegated Rotherham United at the Swansea.com Stadium on Saturday (3pm Kick Off). Luke Williams team ended a run of three games without a win in midweek with an impressive 3-0 win over Stoke City, a result which moves them up to 15th in the table and one that most likely assures the Swans of survival this season in the Championship. It has been a tough campaign for the Welsh team, who went seven games without a win at the start of the season, before winning four in a row. However, they have not found anything like that kind of consistency since. Ahead of the game with Stoke they had won one of their last six and scored just four goals in those games, conceding six. They have however won three of their last four at home, which is something to build on against the bottom of the table Millers.

Already confirmed to relegation after their 1-0 defeat at home to Plymouth Argyle, Leam Richardson's team followed that up with a 2-0 defeat away to West Brom in midweek. A result which saw their goals conceded column hit 84 (13 worse than the next worst team in the Championship). They have won one, drawn one and lost 12 of their last 14 games in the Championship, scoring just seven goals in those games and conceding 32. They have yet to win an away game this season, managing just four draws on the road alongside 17 defeats and they have lost all their last seven away matches. 12 of the 17 goals they have conceded in the last five games have all come in the first half of matches.
