Blackburn Rovers - Cardiff City betting tips and odds

Though the home team can be called favourites, they can’t quite relax going into the match at Cardiff City. Their advantage is quite narrow, and just a few mistakes could end up costing them the game.

Out of their home field and heading into this match as underdogs, Cardiff City would need to play their best to have a hope of winning. That said, even a draw would be a positive outcome, and all three results are quite possible.

Blackburn Rovers are here on the back of a narrow 1:2 home loss against Middlesbrough . The Rovers were considered hard underdogs in that matchup, however, and the lead the held on to after the first half was more surprising than the final result.

Considering they were visitors playing against a much stronger team, the 0:0 result isn’t too bad for Cardiff. They were tied with Coventry City throughout the match.

We’ve seen a string of concessions from Blackburn on their home turf – specifically, 6 over the last 3 matches. Online bookmakers are not giving them great chances of getting out of this one with a clean sheet.

Cardiff are here after a set of rather low-scoring events. The past two matches both ended up confirming the Under 5 Goals betting market and this is something to be taken into consideration ahead of this fixture.

Though a home win is priced at 2.40, the hosts lost their most recent game against The Bluebirds. The two teams played earlier in the season, though Blackburn were the visitors and the goal difference was quite narrow.

With zero injuries reported across the board, this is shaping up to be an exciting outing indeed. Both teams will have their complete squads at their disposal, so we can fully expect them to bring their A-game.

Going for a Home Win is already a fairly safe bet but we’d like to shore it up even further. The highest-value way of achieving this is through a Draw No Bet wager, which shortens the odds to 1.62 but is well worth the price.
