Rotherham United hope to sell some tickets for this game even though the season has been rough so far with 9 points and a 19th position in the Championship table. Visiting Luton Town holds 13th place with 13 pts.
It’s busy days for these teams as both were in action only a few days ago. There’s no rest for the wicked, or in this case; no rest for Rotherham and Luton Town.
Rotherham United form and stats
1 victory, 1 draw and 2 defeats. That’s what Rotherham United have to build on here at AESSEAL New York Stadium in the Championship.
Rotherham United faced defeat in their previous match, away at Stoke City (0-1). Previous to that game, a home match hosting Sheffield Wednesday in a game that was won 3-0.
This is expected to be a close game, with Rotherham United perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Rotherham as a small favourite), we find seven games. Rotherham United has won three of these, drawn two and lost two.
There's a new fixture coming up fairly quickly for Rotherham, as the Championship home game vs Preston North End is only three days away.
The Rotherham fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 5 in 4 matches. On the other hand, Rotherham United have conceded 4 goals.
Luton Town form and stats
As the visiting team in Championship matches, Luton Town have produced an overall stat of 2-0-2 so far.
Luton Town's previous game was their home loss versus Brentford (0-3). A 1-1 draw was the result before that, hosting Nottingham Forest.
As mentioned above, this is an open game with no clear favourite. We have found four similar matches played by Luton Town in our archives, and the results are: two wins for Luton, two draws and zero defeats.
There might be some complaints about the fixture list from the Luton manager N. Jones as the team has another away game coming up in only three days, this time against Huddersfield Town.
There's been a serious shortage of goals from Luton Town's away games in the league this season with only 2 goals from 4 matches. It's not easy to score on Luton Town as they have only conceded 3 goals from these away games.
Head 2 Head
Head-2-head stats last four meetings: two - one - one (Rotherham wins - draws - Luton Town wins). As for goals, three matches ended with three or more goals (over 2,5), one had two or less.Rotherham United missing players
