Rotherham United vs West Bromwich Albion prediction
West Bromwich Albion are all set for the James Morrison experience as their former player is set for his first full season in charge of the Baggies after being appointed at the end of April. They’ve done some good transfer business as well, spending significant seven figure fees on Jimmy-Jay Morgan and Felix Horn Myhre as well as Barney Stewart.
Rotherham United endured a miserable 2025-26 campaign but this should be seen as a fresh start. At home, the onus is on them to take the game to Albion although this poses a huge danger with West Brom likely to be afforded extra space at the other end of the field. Goals could be on the menu here, so consider backing a few of them to be scored across 90 minutes.
Rotherham United vs West Bromwich Albion tip: Over 2.5 goals
