Our Three Predictions For Rotherham United vs Lincoln City

  • First Prediction: Double Chance – Rotherham United or Draw – 4/6
  • Second Prediction: Both Teams To Score – 19/20
  • Third Prediction: Under 3.5 Goals – 2/9

First Prediction For Rotherham United vs Lincoln City – Double Chance – Rotherham United or Draw – 4/6

Despite a rocky start to the season, Rotherham are in a great run of form. They are unbeaten in 5 league games, winning 3.

Three of thos games have come at the AESSEAL New York Stadium, although the Millers only victory came against Leyton Orient. The other 2 both finished 2-2, with points picked up against Bradford City and Burton Albion.

Lincoln are the favourites for this game, mainly due to sitting within the play-off places. However, October wasn’t kind to them, with just 1 win from 4 league outings.

This included 2 defeats against Exeter City and Leyton Orient, whilst the Imps secured a point in a 0-0 draw at Bradford. They also exited the FA Cup last weekend on penalties at League Two outfit Salford City.

Second Prediction For Rotherham United vs Lincoln City – Both Teams To Score – 19/20

Rotherham are in decent goalscoring form and haven’t failed to find the back of the net since a 1-0 reverse against league leaders Stockport County in September. However, they’ve also conceded 5 goals in their last 5.

50% of their outings thus far have seen both teams score, although this figure rises to 57% at home. All 3 of their draws in front of their own supporters this season have finished 2-2.

Lincoln scored a staggering 16 times throughout September in all competitions but goals have dried up in recent weeks. Michael Skubala’s team have found the back of the net just twice in their last 5 but will be confident they can turn that around against a team that have shipped 18 league goals in 14 outings.

Although they possess one of the division’s best defences, the Imps have conceded in 3 of their last 4.

Third Prediction For Rotherham United vs Lincoln City – Under 3.5 Goals – 2/9

Rotherham may already have picked up three 2-2 home draws this season, but this is unlikely to be a goal fest. The Millers will find it tough to break down a resilient Lincoln, who are yet to be involved in a game with 4 or more goals away from home.

The Imps’ last 4 outings have generated just 3 goals combined, with 3 games finishing 1-0. Opting for under 2.5 goals is tempting but with both teams likely to score, this could be a game which could finish 2-1 to either team. Rotherham’s recent form suggests they’re the most likely though.

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

Rotherham started the season with a 2-1 win over Port Vale, but it proved to be somewhat of a false down. They plummeted down the table from there, winning just 1 of their next 9.

October sparked a revival though and despite being in the relegation zone, they embarked on a 3-game winning streak, picking up victories over Northampton Town (2-1), Leyton Orient (1-0) and Barnsley (1-0). That run came to an end on Tuesday night with a 2-2 draw against Burton Albion.

Lincoln look as if they are ready to launch a serious assault on promotion and currently sit fifth in League One. Michael Skubala’s team tasted defeat just once in their opening 10 fixtures, which came away at AFC Wimbledon in August.

The Manager of the Month curse struck in October though and the began the month with a 1-0 home loss against Exeter City. The Imps recovered to beat then-league leaders Stevenage by the same scoreline, but then fell to another 1-0 at Leyton Orient.

They enter this game on the back of a 0-0 draw at Bradford City, although they did exit the FA Cup on penalties against Salford City last weekend.

Rotherham are by far the most dominant team in this fixture and haven’t lost against Lincoln since an EFL Trophy defeat in 2019. The Millers have won the last 3 clashes and have lost just once in the league to the East Midlands-based side this century.

Overall, the Yorkshire outfit have emerged victorious in 53 of the previous 101 meetings. Lincoln have 26 wins whilst there has been 23 draws, the last of which came in 2021.
