Recent respective form guides

Bristol City's home form is poor, winning just 2 of the last six, and losing the other 4. While Robins have scored 5, a worringly large 10 have been leaked at the other end.

Rotherham U.'s away form is none too clever either, collecting 1 win and 3 draws from the last six played. The Millers have scored 8 goals in these games, but conceded an alarming 10.

Bristol City are stuck down in the relegation zone of Coca Cola League One with a return of just 23 points from their 23 games thus far. Rotherham U. are hovering perilously just above the relegation zone, with 23 points from 23 matches.
