Rotherham United
LDLWLL
Since being beaten in their last game against West Bromwich Albion in Championship action, Rotherham United and their fans will hope to get a better result this time.
In that game, Rotherham United had 32% possession and 12 attempts at goal with 1 on target. For their opponents, West Bromwich Albion had 11 attempts on goal with 4 on target. Brandon Thomas-Asante (23') and John Swift (45') scored for West Bromwich Albion.
The strike force from Rotherham United have been starved of goals over their last six games, recording the unsatisfactory return of just 2. In those matches, The Millers have also seen the overall goal aggregate of opposing teams equal 15. Even so, time will tell if that pattern might be replicated in this match.
Looking at their past form shows that Rotherham United:
- have not beaten Swansea City when they've played them away from home in the last 4 matches in the league. Not good at all.
- haven’t won away from home in the past 34 matches in the league. What a horror away run it has been.

Delving into their past head to head results going back to 19/04/2019 tells us that these fixtures have not been kind to Rotherham United. They have not been able to come away with any victories at all while Swansea City have maintained the edge over them, winning in 67% of those matches.
A combined total of 19 goals were scored between the two sides during those clashes, with 12 of them for The Swans and 7 created by The Millers. That’s an average goals per game figure of 3.17.

📋 Team News: Swansea City
Przemyslaw Placheta (Hamstring injury), Kyle Naughton (Hamstring injury), Harrison Ashby (Muscle injury), Joe Allen (Toe injury) and Josh Ginnelly (Achilles tendon rupture) won’t be available for Swansea City manager Luke Williams.
It’s our opinion that The Swans will probably use the 4-2-3-1 system in the match featuring Carl Rushworth, Josh Key, Ben Cabango, Harry Darling, Josh Tymon, Jay Fulton, Matt Grimes, Ronald, Oliver Cooper, Jamie Paterson and Liam Cullen.
📰 Team News: Rotherham United
Due to a fully healthy group ready to go, the Rotherham United boss Leam Richardson doesn’t have any fitness concerns whatsoever ahead of this match.
It’s our belief that The Millers appear most likely to play in a 5-4-1 system, going with Viktor Johansson, Sebastian Revan, Hakeem Odoffin, Lee Peltier, Cameron Humphreys, Cohen Bramall, Femi Seriki, Andy Rinomhota, Sam Clucas, Cafu and Tom Eaves.
💡 Prediction
It’s looking like Rotherham United will need to be at their best to be getting goals against a Swansea City lineup who look set to win well here.
We reckon that it will be a very comprehensive 3-0 winning margin for Swansea City by the conclusion of the match.
