REF’s picks

Backing Shrewsbury with a small head start provides great insurance in what could prove a tightly contested affair. Even if Rotherham manage to raise their game at home, the visitors are well-equipped to avoid defeat.

1. 1Shrewsbury's superior form makes them unlikely to lose this encounter outright.
2. 2Rotherham are desperate for a positive result and could battle hard for a narrow draw.
