1st Prediction For Peterborough United vs Rotherham United – Both Teams To Score – 1.53
Both teams have vastly underperformed so far this season, which could make this a tepid clash. Both teams to score looks an easy prediction to make. Peterborough have conceded in every home game thus far whilst Rotherham have scored in their last three outings on the road. Add to the mix that Jonson Clarke-Harris will return to the Weston Homes Stadium for the first time since leaving Posh in the summer and will be desperate to stick one in the back of the net against his former employers.
2nd Prediction For Peterborough United vs Rotherham United – Draw No Bet – Peterborough United – 1.59
After a rocky start on home soil, Peterborough on unbeaten in their last three in front of their own fans. However, they have still been far from convincing. They picked up a point against Lincoln City, but had to stave off a late Bristol Rovers fightback last month before a late Kwame Poku winner sealed victory against Stevenage at the weekend. Rotherham have picked up just one win in five away fixtures this season and know they face a tough ask in Cambridgeshire.
3rd Prediction For Peterborough United vs Rotherham United – Final Result – Draw – 3.40
This could be a classic case of two teams cancelling each other out. Both teams will be wary that defeat here could see pressure start to mount from supporters, although home advantage potentially means that Peterborough have more to lose. However, Rotherham’s solitary away victory came against a Cambridge United team which have picked up just one point this season, and it still took a 92nd minute winner to secure the three points. Put simply, these two could cancel each other out.

Full Preview Of The Game: Last Results And Head-To-Head
Both teams go into this fixture having ended subsequent winless streaks. Peterborough’s victory over Stevenage on Saturday was their first League One win in four attempts, whilst Rotherham’s late winner against Cambridge ended a run of four games without three points. As a result, Posh sit in 14th with Steve Evans’ side down in 17th. However, with so many team not playing due to the international break, a win for either side could see them surge up the table.
This will be the first meeting between the two sides in the post-COVID era. Their last encounter came in January 2020 in League One, with Peterborough securing a 2-1 win at London Road. Rotherham’s last victory at this ground came in 2014 when a Kieran Agard scored the only goal of the game from the penalty spot.
