THE PREDICTION
Rotherham fell to a fourth successive defeat at the weekend, losing 1-0 to Barnsley and with four currently separating them from safety, this represents a huge opportunity for them to close that gap. Brentford have now secured their place in the playoffs, but will be looking to finish in third-place as they bid to secure a playoff semi-final which sees them at home in the second leg. Bees boss Thomas Frank will be tempted to give a number of key players a rest here, but the importance of finishing the season strong and building on the momentum gained by beating Bournemouth last time out should see him field a strong side vs the Millers. The strength in depth of Brentford, combined with their quality going forward and home advantage, should see them come out on top here against a Rotherham side who have failed to keep a clean sheet in their last five Championship matches.
