Rotherham United Preview – Can Millers maintain unbeaten start?
Rotherham United have made a solid if stubborn return to this season’s Championship as The Millers still remain unbeaten in the English second tier after the opening four games of the new term, beating Reading 4-0 at home and picking up three draws.
Stalemates with Swansea City, Preston NE and QPR have seen Rotherham pick up important points in their early quest to avoid being embroiled in a relegation dogfight later in the season, however, the bigger picture shows that the hosts have registered just one win from their last 12 matches overall, and includes a 1-0 defeat at home to Saturday’s upcoming visitors, Birmingham City.
Birmingham City Preview – Can Blues halt mini slump?
Birmingham City also made a promising start to this new Championship campaign as the west midlands club picked up four points from their opening two games of the season with a point in a 0-0 draw away from home at Luton Town along with a 2-1 home win against Huddersfield Town.
However, since that win against The Terriers, Birmingham have failed to win any of their subsequent three games, losing to Cardiff City and Wigan Athletic but they did hold Watford to a 1-1 draw at home; but Blues do hold a good record against Rotherham and the visitors are capable of nicking a point here.
