History of the Rotherham United v Walsall fixture

Rotherham U. prepare to entertain Walsall at Millmoor Ground on Saturday afternoon, looking to continue an impressive record. The The Millers are clearly on top, winning 58.82% of the games played between the two.

The most recent encounter between these two sides at Millmoor Ground was just last season, in November 2003, with Rotherham U. running out comfortable 2-0 winners in a League Division One match.

Recent respective form guides

Rotherham United's woeful home form means they have chalked up just a single victory, with 5 defeats, from the last six. The Millers have conceded a disappointing 8 goals in this period, and managed to convert only 3 of their own chances.

Walsall's away form is none too clever either, winning and losing 3 each of the last six games. A generous 9 goals have been both scored and conceded in this period.
