Bristol City vs Rotherham United Prediction and Betting Tips | 22nd April 2023 

Bristol City v Rotherham United - Sky Bet Championship
Bristol are looking to complete a league double over Rotherham

Bristol City host Rotherham United at the Ashton Gate Stadium in the EFL Championship on Saturday, looking to arrest their downward spiral and return to winning ways.

After going three games without a defeat, the Robins have lost consecutively, going down 2-0 to Watford and 1-0 to Sheffield United, dropping to 14th in the league table.

However, with 53 points in the bag after 43 games, their safety is assured, and Nigel Pearson's side will look to end their campaign on a high by picking up the maximum available points from their last three games.

Rotherham have accrued seven points fewer than Bristol and sit four places below them in the league standings. The Millers are also winless in their last three games and sit precariously close to the relegation zone.

However, the side will be bolstered by their 2-2 draw with table-toppers Burnley as Matt Taylor's side fought their way back into the game twice, including an 85th-minute equalizer from Georgie Kelly.

  • Having lost their last two league games, Bristol could lose three in a row for the second time this season.

Bristol City vs Rotherham United Prediction

Neither team are in great shape right now, with both failing to win their last couple of games.

Rotherham have been poor on the road, which gives Bristol the psychological advantage. Although the Robins themselves haven't won at home in their last two outings, they are a menacing outfit in their own backyard.
