Rotherham vs Swansea City Prediction

Rotherham United are sinking further into the relegation abyss, with their current seven-game winless run leaving them seven points from safety. The Millers have gotten the vast majority of their points at home this season, having won five and drawn two of their nine games in front of their fans.

Swansea City recently parted ways with former manager Michael Duff and announced Alan Sheenan as his temporary replacement. The Swans have a good record against Rotherham and will be looking to get a win here to steer further clear of the relegation zone.

The Welsh outfit have struggled with holding onto leads but they will fancy their chances of getting something here. Although one side could nick a win here, we are backing the spoils to be shared in a low-scoring stalemate.
