Rationale:
Bolton are paralysed by parity: five successive draws, four of them 1-1, and a 3-3 cup tie supply an unmistakable BTTS pattern. Steven Schumacher’s likely front four—Amario Cozier-Duberry, Aaron Morley, Ibrahim Cissoko and Josh Sheehan—feeding Mason Burstow (three in seven) should manufacture enough shots to score. Yet the same run tells us they almost always give one up. Rotation is expected to be measured rather than sweeping, preserving offensive cohesion while leaving some defensive vulnerability with Ethan Erhahon doubtful.
Rotherham have stuttered—six matches without a win in normal time—but they are not toothless. Matt Hamshaw’s side possess aerial power and hold-up play through Jordan Hugill, with Martin Sherif’s movement testing the channels.
The expected back three of Zak Jules, Denzel Hall and Reece James has not fully settled, which increases the chances of Bolton finding space; however, the Millers’ five straight victories in this fixture embolden them to push on and attack, especially from dead balls and wide deliveries via Rafferty and Martha. With Cameron Dawson an active sweeper-keeper, transitions can be frantic. Add in the psychological need for both teams to change the narrative of their season and you have a tie that should open up rather than tighten. On balance of form, personnel and motivation, the smartest angle is both teams to score.
