Rotherham United vs Shrewsbury Town
Our model puts a Rotherham United win at 41% in this League Two fixture — close to a three-way split. Expected goals run 1.35 to 1.16.
What this probability has been worth
A number is worth what it has been worth. Across 1,941 predictions published before kick-off and scored against the result afterwards, the calls we priced between 35% and 45% came in 38.8% of the time — 717 fixtures in that band. The model claimed 40.6%, so the two are within 1.8 points of each other. In this range the stated probability has meant roughly what it says.
Evenly rated
There is almost nothing between these two on rating — 1411 against 1438, a gap of 26 points. Fixtures this evenly matched are where a model has least to say: the probabilities below are honest, but they are close to a coin weighted only slightly.
Rotherham United are off their season peak
Rotherham United peaked at 1500 this season and sit at 1411 today, 89 points below their own best. Measuring a side against itself rather than against the table is often the earlier signal, and it is not visible in a league position.
