Cardiff vs Rotherham: Top free betting tips

Rotherham United fight to end their winless sequence in the EFL Championship against in-form Cardiff City on Saturday, 30 September. The Bluebirds will also be more offensive to recapture their winning form after conceding a defeat against Blackburn in the EFL Cup.

Total goals prediction: Over 2.5 Goals

Three of the previous five H2H meetings between Cardiff and Rotherham have witnessed high-scoring totals of above 2.5 Goals. Cardiff City have managed an average of scoring two goals per game in the last five league outings. Rotherham United have notched just three goals in the same duration. However, the Millers’ defence adds favour for Cardiff as Rotherham have leaked six goals in the last three league outings. Given these statistics, we predict this game to go Over 2.5 Goals.

Both teams to score prediction: Yes

Cardiff and Rotherham have shared three BTTS outcomes in their last four H2H meetings. The Millers have rattled the net in three of the previous five league fixtures, conceding goals in all of them. Cardiff City have found the back of the net in all of their recent five games at Cardiff City Stadium. But the Bluebirds have clipped the rivals from scoring in only one game during that duration. Therefore, we can expect goals from both ends of the field in this encounter.

Correct score prediction: 3-1 to Cardiff

Rotherham United have not been very prolific in front of the target and scored just one goal in three of the previous five league outings. On the other hand, Cardiff City have rattled the net at least twice in each of their last four home games. The Bluebirds have conceded just three goals in that course. Meanwhile, Rotherham United have conceded multiple goals in three of their previous five league outings. Considering these facts, we predict a 2-1 margin for Cardiff City at the end of the ninety minutes in this fixture.
