Blackburn Rovers Preview – Can Rovers stop the rot?
Blackburn Rovers have slipped down to 15th place in the Championship after having managed just one win out of their last 10 matches overall, which came in the shape of a 2-0 win away from home at Millwall.
Seven defeats out of these 10 defeats places manager, Tony Mowbray, in an increasingly risky position as boss of Blackburn Rovers and another defeat against Bristol City could see his tenure at the club drawing to a close.
In addition, Blackburn Rovers have failed to win any of their last five matches at Ewood Park with defeats against Preston NE, Watford and Brentford so the goals market looks the best option here as 12 of Blackburn’s 18 home matches have seen both teams score.
Bristol City Preview – Can Robins win four on trot away?
New Bristol City manager, Nigel Pearson, has at least picked Bristol City up enough in recent times for the visitors to win their last three away matches on the trot with victories collected at Middlesbrough, Swansea City and Birmingham City respectively, and they may well fancy their chances of a fourth win on the trot at Blackburn.
The win at Birmingham City has helped lift Bristol City up into a more respectable looking mid-table position in 12th place but with 13 points separating them from the play-off pack, it looks like The Robins will just have the remainder of this season to continue improvements.
Bristol City’s rejuvenation under Pearson can’t be under-estimated here but an away win may be in the balance as they possess an inconsistent away record of 8-1-9 24/28 so goals again look likely here; nine of City’s 18 away matches have seen both teams score.
