Data provided by

Fleetwood Town welcome Rotherham United to Highbury Stadium at 12.30pm on Saturday, with both clubs stuck in the bottom half and chasing a result to steady the ship.

Our Fleetwood Town vs Rotherham United predictions and betting tips centre on a League Two meeting between two leaky defences, so goals at both ends look the sensible way in. Fleetwood sit 16th and Rotherham 20th, separated by a single point, and neither has found any consistency over the opening weeks.

Premium Tips

Anthony Eadson has gone through the data at Highbury and landed on two selections that lean into the goals both teams keep shipping.

Premium TipOddsWhy we’re backing it
Paul Mullin to score anytime15/8 (bet365)Paul Mullin has scored five League Two goals for Rotherham this season, and he remains the main focal point of their attack. Fleetwood have drawn five of their ten games and have lost three of their last six, so Rotherham’s striker should get chances at Highbury. Rotherham have drawn four of their own games, and Mullin’s goals have been crucial in keeping them competitive. bet365 offer 15/8 on him scoring anytime.
Draw and both teams to score7/2 (bet365)The level nature of this fixture is hard to ignore. Fleetwood have drawn five of their ten matches and their last home outing finished 1-1 with Walsall, while Rotherham have four draws of their own and recently shared a 3-3 at home with Salford. Separated by a point in the table and each capable of both scoring and conceding, a shared-points finish with goals at both ends makes plenty of sense. At 7/2 it pays a fair bit more than the straight draw and dovetails with our main selection.

How Fleetwood Town go into the game

Fleetwood go into the weekend 16th on 11 points, having taken just two wins from their opening ten League Two fixtures. Their most recent outing was a 1-1 home draw with Walsall, a fourth game without a win that summed up a stop-start start.

Home form has been the steadier side of their season, with one win, three draws and one defeat at Highbury, though four goals conceded in those five games shows the backline remains a worry.

How Rotherham United go into the game

Rotherham arrive 20th on 10 points and badly in need of a reaction. They were beaten 4-1 at home by Gillingham last time out, a result that extended a run of just two wins from ten and left them with a leaky record of 16 goals conceded.

The Millers have managed only one win in five on the road this season, scoring four and conceding six away from home, so a trip to another struggling side offers a chance to arrest the slide.
