The team is currently in the 21st place with 27 points, due to six wins, nine draws and 11 losses in 26 matches played. Three points separate them from the last place in the standings, but they are just one point away from the red zone.

Blackburn Rovers Preview

The team has 14 wins and 12 losses, the third highest number of wins and the second highest number of losses. This poses a curious performance, since with those numbers, the team is in third place overall with 42 points.
In their last performance, they achieved a great result: they defeated Cardiff 1-0 to end a negative streak that included two defeats in a row against Sunderland and Middlesbrough. On the weekend, they achieved a new victory, but in the FA Cup against Norwich by a score of 1-0, so they have two consecutive undefeated records.
Probable lineup (4-2-3-1): Thomas Kaminski; Joe Rankin-Costello, Daniel Sanchez Ayala, Dominic Hyam, Harry Pickering; Tyler Morton, Jake Garrett; Ryan Hedges, Bradley Dack, Ben Brereton; Sam Gallagher.
JefeBet Prediction
Rotherham United have failed to win in their last four home appearances in the Championship, recording one draw and three defeats instead. And although Blackburn is not known for being a good visiting team, it should be remembered that these teams met last October and the victory went to The Rose by a score of 3-0.
Prediction: Blackburn Rovers win 1-0.
