Shrewsbury vs Rotherham United Prediction

Under2.5 goals
59% confidence

Why we picked this for Shrewsbury vs Rotherham United

Under 2.5 goals is our call for Shrewsbury against Rotherham United (EFL Trophy), rated at 59% confidence. Matches involving Shrewsbury produced 1.8 goals per game over their last 5, and 1 of those went over 2.5. For Rotherham United it is 3.0 goals per game, with 4 of 5 over 2.5. Form on its own doesn't settle this one: 5 of the 10 recent games went under 2.5, which is worth keeping in mind before backing Under 2.5.

The head-to-head points the other way: only 1 of their last 3 meetings finished under 2.5 goals. Older meetings say less about how these teams play now, so recent form counts for more in our numbers. At 59%, the recent numbers lean this way, but not strongly. Final score: 0-4. The pick lost.
