Rotherham will hope to summon their dominant run against Bristol Rovers when the two face off this Saturday in League Two. Bristol is the form team in the third tier, sitting atop the standings, while Rotherham are 13th. Coming here on three straight wins, our prediction backs Bristol to prevail.

Bristol’s league campaign started with a 3-2 loss to York City, but they’ve flipped the script since and come here having won three straight matches.

After second-placed Barnet registered back-to-back draws, the Rovers took advantage with straight wins to rise to the league summit. Playing at home should see them extend their lead, having bagged straight wins in their two matches there.

Rotherham will be out to break this momentum as they look to improve their own run. The Millers rallied twice from behind to record a 2-2 draw away to Tranmere in the last round.

They have only managed a win in their last five outings, and that came at home against Chesterfield. Still, they are unbeaten in the last three matches, though that win is sandwiched between two draws.

This hasn’t been the best start to their campaign yet, with the first two matches ending in defeat. Rotherham can still draw positives from a current run of three unbeaten matches against Bristol Rovers, two of them being wins.

Our Bristol Rovers vs Rotherham Prediction

Bristol Rovers look like they will tackle Rotherham’s dominance here. They have failed to win this encounter in the last three outings, but things are likely to change this time. The Pirates are on a good run in the league, having posted three straight wins.

At home they’ve won both league games and will be confident of making it three with their opponents having a slow season so far. Rotherham have also suffered three defeats in their last five visits here. Our prediction for Bristol Rovers v Rotherham United is that Bristol Rovers wins.
