Rotherham United vs AFC Wimbledon: match statistics
Rotherham United is in dismal form, having lost all of their last 5 matches and sitting in 23rd place in the table, suggesting a relegation battle. However, the hosts have a decent home record with 33% wins and only 25% of matches without scoring. AFC Wimbledon presents unstable away form (54% away losses), but in their last 5 matches, they scored 7 goals and won 2 games, showing some resurgence. xG statistics are very close for both teams (1.31 vs 1.1 for the guests), and the average goals in both teams' matches point to an encounter with goals. Given Rotherham's desperation for points and Wimbledon's instability on the road, I expect a close, exciting match with a slight leaning towards a draw or a minimal victory for one side.
