Hull vs Rotherham Betting Tips & Predictions

Hull will be up against Derby next week in the play-offs but there is still the small matter of determining who will have home advantage in the 2nd leg. That side will be Hull if they win this and it is a decent incentive and one that is likely to ensure they won’t make wholesale changes here. They also will not want to go into that game following back-to-back defeats and that is a possibility after they were surprisingly beaten at bottom club Bolton last weekend. They had gone 5 matches unbeaten prior to that though and will be keen to end the regular season on a positive note here.

Rotherham have already achieved their goal of survival with remarkable ease in the end after a dramatic turnaround under Neil Warnock. They’d gone 11 matches unbeaten heading into last week’s home game with Blackburn but a 1-0 defeat put a slight dampener on what was a celebratory atmosphere at the New York Stadium following their great escape. Perhaps they struggled to find the intensity they played with when survival was on the line and that in fairness is only natural.

The Millers will be on their summer holidays after this but Hull have plenty more work to do and they will be the hungrier of the two sides here you’d imagine and keen to make a mends for last week’s shock loss. They also have far more all-round quality and an impressive home record. They’ve only suffered 1 defeat at the KC Stadium this season and have won 3 of their last 4 games there so backing Hull to win at 4/6 looks a safe bet here.
