Our next midweek match prediction comes from League One and is the final of the midweek set of games as Rotherham United host Blackpool. The Millers have been in good form of late, unbeaten in nine whereas the Tangerines have struggled and remain in the relegation spots at the foot of the table. Will this one go the way of the form book?
Rotherham had started the season poorly but a recent upswing in form has seen them climb the table. They now lie 14th in the table with 24 points from their 18 games. In contrast, Blackpool's form is far more erratic and that is reflected in their lowly league position of 22nd in the table with just 16 points from their 18 league games played so far.
Unbeaten in their last nine in the league, Rotherham's recent league form is solid if unspectacular. They drew 0-0 with Luton away and then also held Reading on the road in a 1-1 draw. They followed that with another 1-1 draw, this time at home to Wycombe. However, their most recent match saw them smash Salford City 7-2 away from home in the Football League Trophy.
Unlike their opponents, Blackpool were in action this weekend and defeated Carlisle 4-1 in the FA Cup to reach the third round. Prior to that though their form had been poor with Ian Evatt's team losing 4-2 at Harrogate in the Football League Trophy, 3-0 at home to Reading in the league and prior to that had drawn 1-1 away with Leyton Orient.

Our Rotherham vs Blackpool Prediction
Our prediction for the Rotherham United v Blackpool League One match is: Rotherham wins.
These two teams have had contrasting form of late and it is the home team that are in the better form. Blackpool's away record is dismal and Ian Evatt has had a tough start to the job after taking over from Steve Bruce. Compare that with Rotherham's recent form, especially in the league where they have not lost in nine games and it looks like the home team is the one to back to win this clash.
