Birmingham City Rotherham United betting prediction


Betting suggestion:

The most likely scenario for this clash will be Birmingham winning. It is true that the home team still only adds draws at home, counting for the championship, but on this round faces a very unmotivated opponent, which has recorded six consecutive defeats. Birmingham should take advantage of Rotherham's weaknesses to conquer the first home win.
