Blackburn Rovers Preview – Can Rovers secure a much-needed win?

After starting the year with three wins and a draw from four, Blackburn Rovers were well and truly in the mix for the play-offs. However, things have done drastically downhill for the Lancashire club over the last month or so.

Since back-to-back 1-0 wins over Middlesbrough and Luton Town at the end of January, Blackburn have lost five on the spin in the Championship. In recent weeks, Mowbray’s men have been beaten by Queens Park Rangers, Preston North End, Barnsley, Nottingham Forest and Watford, shipping nine and scoring five in the process.

Our betting prediction:
Both teams to score – No

Blackburn were on the wrong end of a five-goal thriller against Premier League chasing Watford in midweek, eventually losing out by a 3-2 scoreline at Ewood Park. Can the Blue and Whites bounce back with a vital three points this weekend?

Coventry City Preview – Sky Blues to leave Ewood Park with a positive result?

Mark Robins’ Coventry, who won the EFL League One title last term, have been competitive in the Championship this season. Overall, City have won eight, drawn ten and lost 14 of 32 matches.

After one win in seven, though, Coventry have been drawn back towards the relegation zone. The Sky Blues are down in 20th with 34 points to their name, five points above 22nd-place Rotherham United. Robins’ boys head to Lancashire having lost three of their last four in the Championship.

Last weekend, two Tyler Walker goals gave them a stunning 2-0 home win over Brentford. They are more than capable of mixing it with the big boys, but can they pick up a precious three points in Blackburn this Saturday?
