Rotherham have failed to light up League Two following their relegation from League One. The team is set to host Salford City next in the league. One point separates the two sides in the standings, and Salford, coming off two wins, earn the favor in our prediction.

Rotherham have found things a bit tough in League Two, where their latest outing ended in a 1-0 loss at Bristol. They come into this encounter having managed just one win in the season.

That victory against Chesterfield happens to be only their second across the last 15 games. The hosts have suffered nine defeats in the said 15 matches, and here they are at risk of falling in their first league game against Salford.

The last three matches between these sides were all cup meetings, and two of them ended in draws, with Salford losing the other.

The Ammies are looking to do better in this matchup and come here well inspired by back-to-back wins. In their first three matches of the season as well as their EFL Cup round one match, Salford went winless.

They, however, turned on the style to post straight wins against Newport (2-1) and Port Vale (1-0). After also claiming their first clean sheet this season, it isn’t hard to see that Salford’s confidence emanates from recent form.

Our Rotherham vs Salford City Prediction

Salford have never triumphed in this encounter, but here they are presented with a chance to win their first ever league meeting with Rotherham. This should be a manageable game for Salford, who are coming off two straight wins, their first of the season.

Both were at home, and the visitors will be motivated to end a three-match-away defeat. Their biggest challenge is seen in defence but that shouldn’t matter a lot against an equally porous defence. Our prediction for Rotherham United v Salford City is for Salford City to win & BTTS.
