James Milton’s League One Pick: Football Bet of the Day 29-20
Tipster James Milton has selected Port Vale to beat Rotherham as his Football Bet of the Day. The League One fixture kicks off on Tuesday at 7.45pm. Milton’s League One pick is priced at 29-20 with Coral and Ladbrokes.
Port Vale recent form
Port Vale were thrashed 7-0 by Chelsea in the FA Cup quarter-final at Stamford Bridge. Chelsea lined up Cole Palmer, Joao Pedro and Estevao in that tie.
Despite the heavy defeat, Vale produced notable cup victories this season. They beat Championship Bristol City 1-0 and top-flight Sunderland 1-0 at Vale Park.
In league action at home, Vale drew 0-0 with Huddersfield and then beat Bolton 1-0. They sit bottom of League One and face a strong relegation threat.
Why Milton backs Port Vale
Milton points to Vale’s cup character and recent home results. He believes those factors give them an edge against a troubled Rotherham side.
Rotherham’s struggles and squad issues
Rotherham have lost 14 of their 19 away matches this season. Their last two road trips ended in heavy defeats.
The Millers lost 5-0 at Peterborough and 3-0 at leaders Lincoln. Injuries have weakened the squad further.
Midfielder Dan Gore will miss the match after a late red card in Friday’s 0-0 draw with Stevenage. That suspension reduces Rotherham’s options.
Betting context and odds
Milton has made Port Vale his League One pick for this game. The selection is offered at 29-20 with Coral and Ladbrokes.
