Premium TipOddsWhy we’re backing it
The draw5/2 (Betfred)This looks a tight, low-scoring affair between two draw-prone sides. Exeter have scored just four goals all season, the fewest in the division, and their home games have been cagey, with 0-0 draws against Tranmere and Walsall and a 1-1 with Barnet. Rotherham, meanwhile, have drawn four of their eight games and sit on a goal difference of zero. With neither side scoring freely and both content to grind out points, the draw at 5/2 looks a fair call at St James Park.
Paul Mullin to score anytime7/4 (bet365)Paul Mullin leads the Rotherham line and offers the visitors their main goal threat against an Exeter side that, while defensively tidy with three clean sheets, will always give something up at the other end. Rotherham have found the net in most of their recent games, and Mullin is their likeliest scorer. In a game that may hinge on a single goal, backing the Rotherham forward at 7/4 to get on the scoresheet is a sensible angle.

How Exeter City go into the game

Exeter have scored just four goals all season, the fewest in League Two, and their home games have been cagey, with 0-0 draws against Tranmere and Walsall.

Defensively tidy but blunt, they rarely offer much going forward.

How Rotherham United go into the game

Rotherham have drawn four of their eight games and sit on a goal difference of zero.

Paul Mullin leads the line, but they too can be short of a cutting edge on the road.
