Bristol City vs Rotherham United Prediction: Both teams are struggling as they have failed to secure wins in their recent matches

Bristol City is set to host Rotherham United on Saturday at Ashton Gate Stadium. Who will come out on top after 90 minutes? 

Bristol City form

Bristol City is experiencing a decline in their performance as their fixtures become more challenging. The team has only won one match and lost four in their last seven games, with two of those defeats being 1-0 losses against Luton Town and Sheffield United. With a six-point gap between them and 13th place, Bristol City's aim is now to finish as the best of the rest. However, the team has been performing well at home, having not lost a league game at Ashton Gate since their defeat to West Bromwich Albion on Boxing Day.

Bristol City Predicted lineup

O'Leary; Tanner, Vyner, Naismith, Dasilva; King, Scott; Sykes, Weimann, Bell; Conway

Rotherham United Form

At this stage of the season, Rotherham fully understand the importance of every point they can earn, especially after their unexpected 2-2 draw against Burnley midweek. Despite trailing twice, the Millers managed to score late goals in both halves, resulting in a draw at the New York Stadium.

With a game in hand, Rotherham currently sit three points clear of the relegation zone, and with one more win, they could secure their survival in the second tier, aided by their superior goal difference over their rivals.

In their last 10 games, the Yorkshire-based team has lost only three times, and their only defeat in the previous five outings was against Luton Town, who currently sits third in the Championship.

However, Rotherham's away form has been disappointing this season, winning just two of their 21 league fixtures on the road, with their last away win coming against Sheffield United in November.

Rotherham United possible lineup

Hemfrey; Peltier, Humphreys, Wood, Bramall; Coventry, Lindsay; Ogbene, Fosu-Henry, Ferguson; Kelly

Bristol City vs Rotherham United Expert Tips

Both teams are struggling as they have failed to secure wins in their recent matches. Rotherham's weak away form gives Bristol City an edge in the upcoming match. Although Bristol City has not won their last two home games, they are a formidable side when playing at Ashton Gate so we expect them to win this game. Expect less than 2.5 goals in the game.
