Rotherham vs Bolton Predictions

• Six of Rotherham’s eight home league wins this season also produced over 2.5 goals.
• The New York Stadium is the most entertaining League One ground based on average goals (3.5).
• Bolton conceded 15 goals across their last four visits to Rotherham.

Ruthless Rotherham can bounce back

Rotherham’s amazing 21-game unbeaten run came crashing down in uninspiring style as they fell 1-0 to Accrington Stanley last time out. However, the hosts remain unbeaten in each of their last 13 home games, a running beginning in September!

Fans of the Millers will hope that was just a blip in their quest for a top-two finish and they will hope for more here against a side that they scored eight times past in the last two meetings.

Millers boss Paul Warne has overseen four games against Bolton Wanderers during his career and only came out on the losing side once (W2, D1). Here, Warne looks to further solidify that record and in entertaining style, as Rotherham usually have done this season.

Lacklustre Bolton won’t pull up any trees

Bolton sit just six points above the relegation zone and realistically need a few more wins before the end of the season to confirm their survival. However, there will be easier games after this that the Trotters will target as more likely wins.

Ian Evatt’s Bolton have not scored in six straight away league games since their 4-1 win at Charlton and two of the defeats in that sequence ended 3-0, suggesting this will be another long afternoon. However, they will hope to at least score here after bagging four across their last four visits.

All things considered, I predict a Rotherham victory with over 2.5 match goals. The hosts can put Bolton through the mill here with a 3-1 win as they seek to further solidify their promotion push.
