Rotherham v Bradford Predictions and Betting Tips

Tonight’s football betting tips for Rotherham vs Bradford and match predictions for their Friday night League One clash.

Rotherham lurch from one Yorkshire derby to another.  Their defeat to Sheffield United on Tuesday night ended their 16 undefeated streak and the Millers will be looking to immediately bounce back.

They lost crucial ground in the battle for automatic promotion and may have to settle for a play -off place with Brentford picking up all three points against Crawley.

Steve Evans has done a magnificent job this season and they have been scoring goals for fun prior to Tuesday’s blank. Bradford meanwhile will probably be happy to settle for mid-table obscurity. They occasionally toyed with the idea of threatening the top 6, but unfortunately have dropped to 12^th.

Nakhi Wells is still their top scorer despite being sold in January which demonstrates their need to replace his goalscoring prowess if they were to trouble the top of the table next season.

Rotherham have the chance to put the pressure on those teams around them by picking up 3 points before the rest of them kick off. Overlooking the midweek blip, Rotherham have scored plenty and their last gasp 4-3 victory over Gillingham last Saturday shows they are capable of overcoming a deficit. It will probably be worth backing over 2.5 goals in the match for our first football prediction as 77 goals in 41 games is impressive and 41 of those goals have been at home.  4/6 with Paddy Power.

Rotherham/Rotherham on the HT/FT market is 7/5 with Bet Victor and I would be happy to back this. Steve Evans will have his team fired up and Bradford have lost 8 games away from home this campaign and only winning 5. The South Yorkshire side haven’t lost at home since New Years Day and I can’t see them slipping up here.

Lee Frecklington has helped Rotherham this season, weighting in with some crucial goals from midfield. He is second top goalscorer behind Keiran Agard with 9 goals to his name. As well as being a vital cog in the midfield, he might be able to notch an important goal and is 10/3 with Bet365 in the anytime goalscorer market to do so.
