Rotherham vs Leeds Match Preview
Leeds travel to Rotherham for their Saturday’s clash looking to put an end to a troubled spell of form, where they suffered four losses in their last five outings across competitions and only beat Derby (2-0) along the way but still sit at the top of the table with 54 points to their name.
Peacocks have seen Stoke (2-1) deny them the points as a late goal from Egzijan Alioski proved nothing more than a consolation last week, now hoping for a more convincing display in the final third at AESSEAL New York Stadium. They have been scoring goals on the regular and we do feel they’ll still be very confident.
Rotherham have, on the other hand, seen nothing so shocking as they suffered thrashing losses to Man City (7-0) and Brentford (2-4) since early January and narrowly dropped the points at rock-bottomed Ipswich (1-0) along the way.
Millers have been scoring goals in front of the home fans but struggled to capitalize despite failing to find the net just twice in 15 home outings this term, which will be just as worrying for Paul Warne as we expect another exciting contest on Saturday afternoon.
We will now back Leeds to outgun the struggling rivals and bag all three points in such a clash, as we go for an Away win & a Yes on Both teams to score at 5/2 with Betfair – which looks great value seeing that both sides have struggled to keep clean sheets.
With that in mind, it’s easy to make a case for a high-scoring clash in Rotherham and we’ll thus back Over 2.5 Goals FT at 10/11 with William Hill too, which has caught a lot of attention with many in the know and would be the fourth occasion in both sides’ respective last five outings.
