Goal Statistics

Bradford City's fans will be hoping for goals on Saturday afternoon, not least because Rotherham United have conceded in each of their last 8 League One outings. A PG of 1.6 for G. Alexander's side suggests that run should continue.

A truly dismal PG of just 0.8 should cause concerns for Rotherham United fans, as should a 9 League One matches run in which they have failed to score more than 1 goal.
