Saturday’s League One showdown between Plymouth and Rotherham promises to be an intriguing encounter at Home Park. The two teams have a history of closely contested matches, with their last six meetings producing just 13 goals.

Plymouth will look to bounce back from recent setbacks, but face a stern test against in-form Rotherham. The visitors have been steady, and their recent performances suggest they can exploit Plymouth’s vulnerabilities.

Historically, the head-to-heads have been keenly contested. Rotherham has had the better of recent exchanges with two wins to Plymouth’s one and three draws. Notably, the 2018-04-28 and 2022-02-26 fixtures saw Rotherham claim narrow wins.

Given the projected win probabilities, a low-scoring affair is anticipated. With under 3.5 goals predicted and an average of less than a goal per game in their last six head-to-heads, the stage is set for a hard-fought contest.

Plymouth will need to be at their best to topple the in-form visitors. However, with the bookmaker odds suggesting a Rotherham win or draw – and considering a potential lack of firepower from the home side – it seems the wise money is on the visitors claiming the points. Expect a dogged and keenly contested match but potentially with limited goalscoring opportunites.
