Rotherham vs Charlton Betting Tips

These are desperate times for Charlton fans, who have already made two trips to Yorkshire this month and they have ended in 5-0 and 6-0 defeats at Huddersfield and Hull respectively. They picked up a 1-1 draw against Blackburn last time out but are still without a win in 12 matches and have only won twice since August.

Returning boss Jose Riga has a huge task on his hands if he is to keep the Addicks in the Championship and this could be a pivotal match in Charlton’s season. They are 4 points below opponents Rotherham, the side directly above the dreaded dotted line. Depending on the result of this game Charlton could be 1 point from safety and have huge morale-boosting win from which to build from or they could be 7 points adrift and staring at the trap-door to League 1.

It’s a massive game for Rotherham too who could give themselves some real breathing space on the bottom two clubs at least with a win. Unlike their opponents, they have been picking up the odd win and got a decent point last time out with a 2-2 draw at Cardiff.

They’ve won 3 of their last 4 home games and the way Charlton have been going on the road of late, you have to fancy Rotherham here to win this at 3/4.

Charlton were better defensively last time out against a fairly toothless Blackburn side but given Rotherham have won relegation six-pointers at home to Bristol City and Bolton over the past couple of months by 3-0 and 4-0 margins, they have recent experience of winning these big relegation clashes and look good value at 7/1 to win this 2-0.
