Rotherham United, Recent FormIn the aftermath of a 4-1 away mauling at the hands of Stoke City, the Rotherham United team will need to refocus and rebuild confidence among the team. During that encounter they had 29% possession and had 6 attempts on goal with 3 on target, while their opponents hit 6 of their 15 shots on goal.
While they have shown an appetite for goals over the last 6 matches, clocking up 6, they have not had it all their own way at the back and have given away 10 goals and some valuable points in the process. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 games, but they have only kept 1 clean sheet in their last 6 games at AESSEAL New York Stadium.

Blackburn Rovers, Recent FormLast time out, Blackburn Rovers left content aftera 2-1 home win against West Bromwich Albion They came away from that fixture with a 59% share of the possession and clocked up 13 attempts on goal with 4 on target, in comparison to West Bromwich Albion, who managed 14 attempts on goal, 4 of which were on target.
It's fair to say that manager Jon Dahl Tomasson will be pretty happy with his squad's ability to find the net of late, having scored 9 goals in their last 6 matches. That said, he will also be aware there is still work to do at the back, where they have shipped 8 goals in those same matches as well as some valuable points. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 games.
Blackburn will take some comfort from having only lost 1 of their last 6 games, but having managed just 2 wins shows there's room for improvement.
