Betting on Blackburn Rovers
Blackburn is fighting tooth and nail to secure a spot in the promotion playoffs to the Premier League. They currently hold the last available spot, sitting in sixth place with 62 points, but they come into this game on the back of three consecutive winless matches.
In the previous matchday, they managed to salvage a 2-2 draw away to Huddersfield Town, coming back from a 2-0 deficit and scoring the equalizer in stoppage time thanks to Ryan Hedges. It is also worth noting that the Chilean national team striker Ben Brereton Diaz, who has scored 14 goals this season, is expected to feature in this crucial match.
Probable Lineup (4-3-2-1): Aynsley Pears; Joe Rankin Costello, Hayden Carter, Dominic Hyam, Harry Pickering; Adam Wharton, Tyler Morton, Lewis Travis; Sammie Szmodics, Ben Brereton Diaz, Tyrhys Dolan.
Betting on Hull City
Hull City, on the other hand, are comfortably distant from the relegation zone, but they still need to pick up points to move closer to the middle of the table. In the previous matchday, they secured a narrow 1-0 victory over Millwall, putting an end to a five-match winless streak.
However, Hull City hasn’t won an away game since January 2, when they defeated Wigan Athletic 4-1. In their last three away matches, they’ve drawn all three, including a thrilling 4-4 draw against Sunderland in the previous matchday.
Probable lineup (4-2-3-1): Karl Darlow; Lewie Coyle, Alfie Jones, Sean McLoughlin, Jacob Greaves; Regan Slater, Jean Michael Seri; Malcolm Ebiowei, Dimitrios Pelkas, Allahyar Sayyadmanesh; Ozan Tufan.
JefeBet Prediction
The pressure is on the home team, Blackburn, as they need to pick up points to stay within the top four teams that will compete in the promotion playoffs at the end of the season. Their sense of urgency, combined with the home advantage, should give them an edge over Hull City.
Interestingly, Blackburn have fewer goals scored than Hull City despite being much better positioned in the table. However, in terms of performance and competitiveness, at JefeBet we believe that the home team should prevail in this game, although with difficulties.
Prediction: Blackburn Rovers Moneyline (BLA 2-1 HUL).
