Blackburn Rovers - Sheffield Wednesday predictions

With bookies pricing a home win at 2.07, it’s clear the match may yet go either way. The hosts have a distinct advantage, of course, but both a draw and an away win are quite possible outcomes.

At 3.70 betting odds, an away win would be a huge surprise and we’re positive Sheffield Wednesday are well aware of it themselves.

Blackburn Rovers did not have high hopes for their previous league game. As 9.50 underdogs, Blackburn Rovers were expected to go through a heavy beating. Instead, they kept a level first half and managed to score a decisive goal to get them a surprising Leeds United away victory!

While The Owls’s previous Championship match didn’t end in triumph, the 1:1 draw is a net positive for them. Despite playing at home, the odds were still against them - 2.76, to be exact. Still, the teams proved to be evenly matched both at half-time and the final result.

Blackburn can’t seem to maintain a proper defence whenever they play as visitors. With 6 concessions over the past three away games, it’s obvious some tweaks need to be made in defence.

Sheffield W.’s recent performance as visitors has been marked by a lot of conceded goals – 8 in their previous 3 away games.

These two squads already clashed this season, and The Rovers narrowly lost the bout. With a home-field advantage on their side, however, most bookies believe that they’re more likely to win this time.

Both teams will be able to field their strongest lineups this Sunday, with no injuries or suspensions to worry about.

An Under 2.5 Goals bet combines the best of both worlds: it’s a fairly safe bet with a high probability of success, but it also offers decent betting value. You can place it on the Pncl priced at 1.93 odds.
