Match Preview

Salford City host Rotherham United in the Carabao Cup on Tuesday evening at The Peninsula Stadium, with both teams looking to build momentum in their respective campaigns. Salford's recent form is promising, having secured three wins from their last five matches, while Rotherham has shown resilience with two wins in their last three outings after a shaky start. One key angle to consider is Salford's defensive solidity at home, which has been a hallmark of their recent performances. They have conceded only two goals in their last five matches, suggesting they can frustrate Rotherham's attack. However, the Millers will be keen to exploit any defensive lapses, especially given their own need to find consistency after a mixed start to the season. With odds indicating a competitive matchup, the potential for a low-scoring affair could be on the cards, particularly given the historical trend of few goals in their past encounters. Expect a closely contested game, where tactical discipline will be crucial for both sides.
