• There is a clear but slim favourite here. Northampton is the shortest price on a book of 2.25 / 3.25 / 3 (1 / X / 2), an implied 40.9%. Across the three outcomes the book reads 40.9% / 28.3% / 30.7% on an overround of 8.5%.

• The draw is unusually well backed at 3.25 (28.3%), which normally points to a cagey, low-scoring game rather than an open one.

• In the league table Northampton sit 17th on 6 points (1W 3D 2L) with Rotherham 16th on 6 points (1W 3D 2L).

• Northampton read L-W-D-D-L-L across their last 6 in all competitions, most recent first (1W 2D 3L) — more bad than good.

• Rotherham read D-L-D-W-D-L across their last 6 in all competitions, most recent first (1W 3D 2L) — patchy.

• Head to head the record reads 0-0-6 — Northampton wins, draws, then Rotherham wins. Their last meeting finished Rotherham - Northampton: 2-1.

• Rotherham lean hardest on Fábio Tavares (9.5), Denzel Hall (9.5), Josh Austerfield (9.5) on our Player Index — how much of the side's football each man accounts for, out of 10. It measures involvement and cover, not performance.

• The read: Northampton at 2.25 is the side the market is with, and nothing in the data above argues against it.
