Football – England – Championship Betting Tips

Next up is a bottom half clash between hosts Burton Albion and rock-bottom club Rotherham United at the Pirelli Stadium with both teams eager to register maximum points for the first time in a while.

Burton Albion head into this encounter on the back of a four-match run without a win in the Championship following defeats to Leeds United and Reading although both of these losses were incurred away from home, while draws with Barnsley and Preston North End were expected. But of these four matches, three of them were away from home, so Burton will no doubt be looking forward to returning to their home ground for this clash.

The Brewers have usually been pretty solid too at the Pirelli Stadium and they currently possess a pretty good record of  4-2-2  10/5 so far and are unbeaten in their last four on home soil; recent wins over Cardiff City and Birmingham City have kept them out of trouble thus far.

Visitors Rotherham United are having to endure a horror start to their new Championship campaign as the rot has well and truly set in at the South Yorkshire outfit as they sit bottom of the Championship with just 7 points to their name.

A 14-match sequence without a win in the English second tier has resulted in the Millers being a massive 11 points adrift of their relegation rivals already, and things don’t appear to be getting any better anytime soon for the seemingly doomed club.

Rotherham’s away record stands at a very poor  0-1-8  8/28 and it’s no surprise to learn that they possess the worst defensive record away from home in the division as they’ve conceded 3 goals or more on 7 occasions from their 9 away matches to date!.
