Bournemouth to strengthen play-off chances against Rotherham

Bournemouth to strengthen play-off chances against Rotherham
1516

On Wednesday night, Bournemouth will look to consolidate their place in the Championship play-off spots, as the Cherries host struggling Rotherham at the Vitality Stadium.

Bournemouth’s recent form has been poor with just one win in their last seven league games. The poor run of form led to the recent dismissal of Jason Tindall as the teams head coach.

The team have enjoyed decent results under interim boss Jonathan Woodgate. They have now taken four points from their last two league matches, which is a step in the right direction for the team from the south coast.

A goalless draw at Nottingham Forest last time out ended a run of six games without a clean sheet for the home team in the second tier.

The Cherries have struggled for victories of late on home soil in the Championship. A 3-2 home win over Birmingham in their last league outing at the Vitality Stadium ended a run of three games without a home win.

Rotherham are in major peril in the Championship, as the Millers are currently just a point above the relegation zone. Their recent league results have been mixed, but the Yorkshire outfit have suffered just two defeats in their previous seven matches in the second tier.

The visitor's recent games have certainly provided entertaining fare, as Rotherham’s last six Championship matches have all produced over 2.5 goals.

Paul Warne’s team have been relatively prolific compared to some of the teams around them, as no team in the league’s bottom 13 have scored more goals than the visitors this season.

The Millers have also been in decent form on their travels, winning their last three away games in the Championship against Derby, Middlesbrough and Preston.

Forebet predicts that Bournemouth will boost their play-off chances by recording a victory in a high-scoring encounter.
