Bookies Expecting Doncaster to Triumph

With a roughly 61% chance of triumphing, the bookmakers aren’t giving too much away with their 1.63 betting odds for Doncaster Rovers winning this League One clash. Rotherham United are the underdogs at 4.90 which implies a lesser percentage prospect of winning.

Betting Doncaster -0.75 on the Asian Handicap at 1.81 means splitting stake between -0.5 and -1.0. Therefore, a one-goal win over Rotherham means a win and a push, with a 2+ goal victory meaning a full payout.

If you’re wagering on Total Goals, the market is finding it hard to split Overs and Unders. A different angle is going for a BTTS wager and there’s 1.78 available for Both Teams to Score No.
