Our Three Predictions For Rotherham United vs Wycombe Wanderers

        • Prediction 1 – Daniel Udoh To Score – 3/1
        • Prediction 2 – Over 2.5 Goals Scored – 19/20
        • Prediction 3 – Wycombe Wanderers To Win – 5/4

First Prediction For Rotherham United vs Wycombe Wanderers – Daniel Udoh To Score – 3/1

One of the main talking points coming out of Wycombe’s loss to Wrexham this weekend was the absence of Richard Kone, who had played a full ninety minutes in their previous game against Peterborough United. Wanderers boss Mike Dodds confirmed that it was illness that saw the Luton Town-linked forward miss out entirely, meaning it was Daniel Udoh leading the line at Adams Park. The Nigerian will likely do the same this time around and will hope to tap into the form he reached against Bristol Rovers and Crawley Town last month.

Second Prediction For Rotherham United vs Wycombe Wanderers – Over 2.5 Goals Scored – 19/20

Whilst the result did not go their way at home, Wycombe did have plenty of strong efforts against The Red Dragons and had both a higher xG and number of shots on target against their opponents. They will face a Rotherham team that has been quite inconsistent but if their performance against Exeter City is to go by, The Millers will by highly dangerous. They were extremely unlucky not to claim all three points in South Yorkshire, racking up 24 shots, with nine of those on target. These two sides can create chances and with slight defensive wobbles in them, there could be a gluttony of goals in this fixture.

Third Prediction For Rotherham United vs Wycombe Wanderers- Wycombe Wanderers To Win – 5/4

Wycombe need a victory to put their own promotion destiny in their hands. Their only two losses since mid-January came against Birmingham City and Wrexham and barring those games have been near-on dominant in their fixtures. Rotherham meanwhile are the definition of inconsistency, being able to achieve impressive victories like they did against Leyton Orient but have easily slipped up so many times this season. Mike Dodds’ side will want a response from their defeat on the weekend and will fancy their chances as League One’s strongest team in away matches.

Full Preview Of The Game: Last Results And Head-To-Head

Wycombe now find themselves in a crunch period for their season’s fate as they slipped into third place after losing to Wrexham. The Red Dragons now sit three points clear in second but with Wycombe able to reset the situation and reclaim that place with a win on Tuesday due to a superior goal difference. The Chairboys have only lost three times since the turn of the year, against Birmingham, Huddersfield Town and Wrexham. In their last five matches, they drew to Peterborough United and Wigan Athletic, with their only win in the period being over the relegation-threatened Burton Albion. Wycombe also have a major concern in Richard Kone, who was unavailable last time out due to illness.

Rotherham United’s misfortunes continued against Exeter City, with Millers boss Steve Evans launching a scathing critique of his side’s defending which led to The Grecians snatching a draw at the New York Stadium. That result saw no change in their league standing and remained in 14th, and no matter the result will stay there until the weekend at least. Across their last five matches, they have claimed more points than their opponents with seven compared to Wycombe’s five. They beat both Bristol Rovers and Leyton Orient and have also faced defeat to Wrexham and in a South Yorkshire derby against Barnsley.

Since 2010, Wycombe have been a dominant force in this fixture, with six wins to The Chairboys name compared to a solitary win for Rotherham back in 2020. The reverse fixture saw Wanderers win comfortably at Adams Park, courtesy of goals from Cameron Humphreys and Kieran Sadlier.
