by Ian John in League One Predictions
There's League One action on Saturday lunchtime this weekend as hosts Rotherham United welcome Wigan Athletic. Both the Millers and the Latics have endured middling starts to their seasons, with both sitting in the mid or lower reaches of the table. Managers Matt Hamshaw (Rotherham) and Ryan Lowe (Wigan) will be hoping for a valuable three points here, but what will our prediction for this match suggest as the market to back?
Currently, having played three games this season, Rotherham occupies 17th spot in the table with three points from three games. Wigan have played one game more and have landed one more victory, amassing six points from four games, which leaves them in 13th place in the table heading into this fixture.
Rotherham began the season well enough, earning a 2-1 win over newly-promoted Port Vale, but they then went down to a 1-0 defeat away to Stevenage. A 0-0 draw in the Carabao Cup with Salford followed, which they won 3-2 on penalties, before last weekend's dismal showing at Cardiff, where the Millers lost 3-0.
Wigan's season is largely defined by its excellent home form (three wins from three) and poor away form (two defeats in two). Most recently, they beat Peterborough United 2-0 last weekend at home, but in midweek went down to a narrow 1-0 defeat away to Luton Town.

Our Rotherham vs Wigan Prediction
Our prediction for the Rotherham United vs. Wigan Athletic League One match is: Under 2.5 Goals.
The data for this game shows two teams in inconsistent form, making a result-based prediction tough. However, the data clearly shows that Wigan matches tend to have fewer than two goals per game in the main, while historically, this fixture has not seen a match see over 2.5 goals scored since 2018. Add to that Rotherham's two goals this season and Wigan's lack of goals away from home and the Under 2.5 Goals market looks a wise option.
