Encounter between Rotherham United and Peterborough United is shaping up to be one of those affairs where recent results gets out the window. Starting
Rotherham United’s been all over the shop, their performances swinging from brilliant to questionable. Meanwhile, Peterborough United’s scrapping through a rough patch, their backline looking unstable.
Looking at past meetings, it’s a toss-up. Rotherham United’s had the advantage lately, but footy’s got a nonexistent memory.
Personal take: Both outfits’ve got problems. Rotherham United’s midfield’s sputtering, while Peterborough United’s frontline lacks a killer instinct.
Across the 1st League, this game carries added significance.

Rotherham United at 2.62 to win feels tight given their Jekyll-and-Hyde act in the 1st League this term. Their underlying numbers suggest they’re overperforming — analytics guys would fade them.
Peterborough United’s 2.25 odds tempts, especially if their center forward (CF) shakes off his cold streak.
The smart money’ll likely target the Draw 3.65 — these big games often follow scripts, and nerves can kill attacking flow.
