Peterborough v Rotherham

Peterborough vs Rotherham Preview

Peterborough United returned to winning ways last Saturday in League One when The Posh registered a 2-1 home win against Stevenage, while Rotherham United claimed a second win on the trot in the English third tier when The Millers captured all three points by way of a 2-1 home win against Reading.

Peterborough United had previously failed to win any of their preceding three league matches which saw the upcoming hosts pick up a point in a 2-2 draw away from home at Leyton Orient which was followed by back-to-back defeats to the likes of Birmingham City and Wigan Athletic, both of which were away from home.

The hosts have produced a somewhat mixed bag of results so far in the English third tier as The Posh have picked up four wins, two draws, but also slipping to four defeats as well, while only two of Peterborough's four wins have actually been collected on home soil.

The bigger picture shows Peterborough United have managed to capture just four wins within their previous 14 games overall while also slipping to six defeats as well, so there appears to be no guarantees of all three points here for Darren Ferguson's side.

Rotherham United will be going in search of a third league win on the trot on Saturday afternoon when the Yorkshire club make their way to the Weston Homes Stadium following recent back-to-back victories against Cambridge United and Reading respectively.

The Millers have also produced a mixed bag of results to date so far in this League One campaign as the visitors have registered just three wins in their opening 10 games so far this term which included an earlier 2-1 home win against Huddersfield Town.

However, Rotherham United have only been handed three defeats as well so far in this League One season, two of which have been away from home at Exeter City and Wycombe Wanderers, and the bigger picture shows Steve Evans' side have suffered just four defeats in their last 16 outings on the road.

Having picked up seven wins within this 16-game period on their travels, Rotherham United look to have a pretty reasonable chance of getting something out of this upcoming encounter at the Weston Homes Stadium, especially as Steve Evan's side have also kept a total of nine clean sheets within this sequence as well.

Peterborough United v Rotherham United Verdict

Both Peterborough United and Rotherham United have produced unconvincing and inconsistent results so far in this season's League One campaign and therefore this upcoming fixture could really go either way on Saturday afternoon.

The momentum might just be in Rotherham United's favour though so The Millers look a decent price here.

Therefore, our main bet will be Rotherham United win @ 2.80
