Blackburn Rovers Preview – Will Rovers secure back-to-back home wins?

Tony Mowbray’s Blackburn Rovers have had a miserable 2021 so far. They started the year well, winning three and drawing one of their opening four, but Rovers have gone on to win just two Championship games since January.

Last Friday, the Blue and Whites picked up a hard-fought 2-1 home win over Derby County, which was their first league victory at Ewood Park since a 1-0 triumph over Luton Town on 30th January. They failed to build on that win over the Rams, though, losing 1-0 to relegation-threatened Sheffield Wednesday at Hillsborough in midweek.

Our betting prediction:
Blackburn clean sheet
13/8

(odds taken 1213 GMT, Friday 23 April)

 
Blackburn will already be planning for the summer, trying to build a team who can flirt with the play-offs next season. This term, they face Rotherham United and Birmingham City after this weekend’s clash.

Huddersfield Town Preview – Can Town seal a fifth away victory of season?

Huddersfield Town were narrowly beaten by play-off chasers Barnsley at the John Smith’s Stadium on Wednesday night, leaving them in 20th spot. However, even though 22nd-placed Rotherham United have two games in hand, the Terriers should survive.

In their last away game, Carlos Corberan’s men picked up an impressive 2-0 win against Chris Hughton’s well-drilled Nottingham Forest. Aaron Rowe opened the scoring on the stroke of half time before Juninho Bacuna extended their lead on the hour mark.

Huddersfield have struggled on their travels, with the win in Nottingham being just their fourth away success of the season. Only Sheffield Wednesday and Wycombe Wanderers – the current bottom two – have picked up fewer away points than Corberan’s troops.

 

Blackburn Rovers vs Huddersfield Town Betting Advice

Huddersfield ran out narrow winners when the pair squared off at the John Smith’s Stadium back in December. Mahamadou-Naby Sarr was Town’s hero, with his second goal of the game coming in injury time in the 2-1 home triumph. The last two meetings have ended in 2-1 wins for the Terriers.

 

Key Facts – Blackburn Rovers vs Huddersfield Town Betting Tip

  • Blackburn have picked up just one home win since January
  • Only Sheff Wed and Wycombe have picked up fewer away points than the Terriers
  • Both sides suffered 1-0 midweek defeats

 

Huddersfield’s need for the points is greater than Blackburn’s, but both will be Championship clubs next season. As for Saturday’s clash, it really could go either way between two struggling sides. However, we fancy Mowbray’s boys to edge a tight contest at Ewood Park. Check out the solid odds of 13/5 for the hosts to win by one.

Before the recent 2-1 win over Derby, Blackburn’s previous four victories all came with clean sheets. With that in mind, put some money on the home win to nil at 9/4.
