Preview
Manchester City and Rotherham United face at Etihad Stadium, in a match for this stage of the FA Cup (3rd Round). There is no record of official head‑to‑heads between these two teams in the last 3 years. The last time they met, on 23‑03‑2002, the match ended with the final score: Rotherham United (1‑1) Manchester City. Rotherham United registers significant differences between home and away results, so special attention is due to the home/away factor.

Analysis Man City

The home team plays its first match in this edition of the FA Cup with the intention of using the home advantage to get a positive result. This is a team that usually maintains its competitive level in home and away matches, since in the last 30 matches they register 9 wins, 4 draws and 2 losses in away matches, with 30 goals scored and 11 conceded; against 13 wins and 2 losses at their stadium, with 48 goals scored and 13 conceded. In their last match, for the Premier League, they got a home win against Liverpool by (2‑1). In the last 10 home matches Manchester City has won 9 and lost 1. They haven't been very strong defensively, since they have suffered goals in all of the last 10 matches, but their offense has scored frequently, since they have scored goals in 9 of the last 10 matches. In their home matches there is a tendency for goals, since 26 of the last 29 matches have ended with Over 1,5 goals and 24 out of 29 have ended with Over 2,5 goals. This is a team that likes to score first. They have opened up the score in 12 of the last 15 matches, they have reached half‑time in front in 9 of those 12 matches and have held on to the lead until the end of the 90' in 9 of them. In the last 20 home matches for all competitions there is 1 period that stands out: they have conceded 6 of their 17 goals between minutes (16'‑30').

Manchester City heads to this game  motivated game after beating Liverpool by 2-1, registering the second straight win: the team's goals were scored by Sané and Aguero. Of note is that the hosts have lost 3 of the last 10 games. No major surprises, manager Pep Guardiola should keep the team in 4-3-3 privileging possession and organized attacks, especially through the right aisle: Sterling is very fast and competent in transporting the ball to the attack. The striker Sergio Aguero is Manchester City's top scorer in several competitions with 13 goals scored. For this game the coach can not count on Braco and Mendy, both with physical problems.

Analysis Rotherham

The team plays its first match in this edition of the FA Cup with the intention of getting a positive away result. This is a team that usually makes good use of the home advantage, stronger with the help of its supporters, since in the last 30 matches they register 4 draws and 11 losses in away matches, with 10 goals scored and 29 conceded; against 7 wins, 6 draws and 2 losses at their stadium, with 22 goals scored and 19 conceded. In their last match, for the Championship, they got a home win against Preston North End by (2‑1). In the last 10 away matches Rotherham United has tied 4 and lost 6. Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded at least one goal in each of the last 10 matches, but their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored goals in 8 of the last 10 matches. In 15 matches, they have conceded the first goal 9 times and have only turned the score around in 1.

Rotherham's side comes to this clash motivated after a 2-1 home win over Preston, returning to triumphs after 9 straight games without a win: the team's goals were signed by Vaulks and Smith. In this away game, coach Paul Warne is expected to play in 4-3-3 favoring the defensive organization and counterattack through the aisles. The midfield player, Englishman Will Vaulks, is Rotherham's top scorer in several competitions with 6 goals scored. There are no weight absences for this game.
