Rotherham United vs Lincoln City Match Analysis & Prediction
03/12/2024 10:45 pm
Struggling Rotherham United will play host to promotion hopefuls Lincoln City at AESSEAL New York Stadium on Tuesday in League One.
Rotherham are currently in 19th position with 17 points after 16 matches, while Lincoln are ninth with 26 points from their 17 game so far.
Combined with the fact that Rotherham have recorded just one win in their last six League One matches and have lost four of the last five, it is fair to say that the Millers have been in poor form for some time.
Rotherham did gaain a brief reprieve with a win over League Two side Bradford City in the EFL Trophy, but followed up that victory with a defeat to Crawley Town last time out on November 23, and The Red Devils are now just one point behind Rotherham.
In that match, Rotherham conceded a goal in the 21st minute from Will Swan, were unable to muster a reply, and were in truth lucky to have avoided conceding a second when Crawley’s Rafiq Khaleel missed a chance late on.
In a somewhat contrasting season so far, Michael Skubala’s Lincoln City are just one point behind Barnsley, who occupy League One’s final promotion playoff spot.
Nevertheless, despite their relatively higher league position, the Imps have managed just two wins from their eight most recent league games, a run that includes two draws and four losses.
Last time out, Linclon beat Crawley Town 4-3 away from home in the FA Cup, a game that saw the Imps come from 2-0 down to lead 4-2 shortly after halftime, although they did concede an 82nd-minute goal to set up a tense ending.
In their most recent league game on November 26, Lincoln lost 1-0 away to high-flying Wrexham through an own goal from Tendayi Tarikwa.
