ROTHERHAM UNITED - SWANSEA CITY


Rotherham are in freefall and are now holding up League 1, after a run of 10 games without a win. They have won only once in 15 starts, since the end of October. The Millers did, however, keep a clean sheet, their first in 18 matches, in the 0-0 draw at Brighton, on Saturday.


Swansea are looking to bounce back, after a surprising loss to Cheltenham at the weekend. They currently occupy sixth place ,the final play-off spot in the table. With their next 4 starts coming against, Oldham (2nd in table), Doncaster (8th), Scunthorpe (top) and Yeovil (5th), the Swans have to go looking for maximum points tonight.


As you might expect, they dominate the home side in the attempts on goal stats, with 423 verses 298, the visitors have also hit the woodwork an amazing 20 times.


Both teams have a handful of players out through injury, many of them long term, but Swansea have far greater strength in depth and more options and class, at their disposal. They should not travel home empty handed.


4 points Swansea level ball asian line 1.78.


Back later.
