Blackburn Rovers Preview
Blackburn Rovers drew 1-1 with Bristol City in their last game, but have now gone two games without a win in the Championship and have won just one of their last five matches. Despite being winless and inconsistent so far in 2023, they have won 50% of their 28 matches, with 14 wins, one draw and 13 defeats. Thus, they accumulate 43 points that position them in the eighth place of the standings.
They are the fifth best home team, as they have only lost four out of 13 matches in that condition and their last victory in the Championship was precisely at home, which gives them the tools to be considered favorites in this match.
Probable Lineup (4-2-3-1): Thomas Kaminski, Harry Pickering, Scott Wharton, Hayden Carter, Joe Rankin-Costello, Tyler Morton, John Buckley, Ben Brereton Diaz, Bradley Dack, Ryan Hedges, Jack Vale
Wigan Athletic Preview
All the pressure is on Wigan Athletic, mainly due to the fact that they are in last place with 25 points after six wins, seven draws and 15 defeats in 28 games.
It is the team with the highest number of goals conceded (49), which shows its abysmal defensive performance, and is the reason why it has not won in its last nine games in all competitions. Their away situation does not change much, as they have also gone nine games without a win in this condition, with their last victory coming in October.
Probable lineup (3-5-2): Ben Amos; Charlie Hughes, Steven Caulker, Curtis Tilt; Ryan Nyambe, Max Power, Christ Junior Tiehi, Miguel Azeez, James McClean; Will Keane, Ashley Fletcher
JefeBet Prediction
Wigan need to win this game, but there is little chance of them doing so, despite the fact that they have won their last three meetings against this opponent in all competitions. Blackburn is on a favorable run, with three unbeaten performances in all competitions, and is likely to get another win here.
Prediction: Blackburn Rovers win by a score of 1-0.
