Recent respective form guides

Cheltenham Town's poor home run has seen them win just 1 and draw 2 of the last six. While Robins have scored 10, a worringly large 13 have been leaked at the other end.

Cheltenham T.'s total of 12 points from their 7 games sees them sitting in the playoff places in Coca-Cola League Two. Rotherham U. are holding the final promotion place in the Coca-Cola League Two, and have accumulated 16 points from the 7 games they have played so far.
