Blackburn Rovers - Preston North End predictions

Blackburn Rovers should not have bigger problems running away with three points in this match if they stick to their game plan. However, Preston North End can be a tough nut to crack and the home side need to be on top of their game.

The away team’s chances of winning this Friday are dubious at best. They are the clear underdogs in a matchup with Blackburn, and the fact that they’re the visiting team isn’t making things any easier.

Blackburn Rovers’s previous Championship clash came down to a single goal making the difference. The Rovers held well for the first 45 minutes but did not have enough gas in their tank to push through the entire match. In the end, a narrow Bristol City home defeat is what they will be looking to bounce back from this Friday.

The Lilywhites are coming off of a notable home victory in the previous round. Top online bookmakers and most Championship betting predictions saw them as the clear underdogs compared to Middlesbrough. However, they took an unexpected lead in the early game and eventually finished the game with a 2:1 lead.

Blackburn are coming on the back of 3 consecutive defeats. Hopefully, they’ll be able to buck the trend.

With their most recent track record in mind, Preston tend to perform quite well offensively. Their previous 3 home games featured at least 5 goals in total.

At this point, the clash between these two teams is notorious for producing inconclusive results. They already have several tied matches on record in this season alone, which is ultimately worse for the home team who are considered favourites.

An Under 2.5 Goals bet is an easy tip to offer – it’s a fairly probable outcome with betting odds priced at a comfortable 1.62. More importantly, though, the betting value it offers is surprisingly solid.
