Blackburn Rovers Nottingham Forest betting prediction


Betting suggestion:

Blackburn Rovers wants to win and continue to fight for the top positions of the table, that is, a victory in this game is essential to achieve that goal. Tony Mowbray's team comes face to face with a team that is going through a very negative phase and for this reason is expected to act in a very offensive manner. On the other hand, Nottingham Forest should enter with a great attitude in the game, however, the problems in its game model "will speak louder". That said, we believe that Blackburn Rovers will win the three points in this round.

Preview
Blackburn Rovers and Nottingham Forest meet at Ewood Park, in a match for the 5th round of the Championship. At this stadium, the head‑to‑head history favours the home team, since they have a record of 1 win and 3 draws in the last 4 matches. However, the last time these teams met at this stadium, on 01‑10‑2019, in a match for the Championship, they tied (1‑1). The goals of the match were scored by A. Armstrong (63' ), for Blackburn Rovers, and by J. Lolley (65' ), for Nottingham Forest.

Analysis Blackburn

The home team is currently in the 6th position of the league, with 7 points won, after 2 wins, 1 draw and 1 loss. In the penultimate match, they won in an away match against Derby County, by (0‑4). In the last match, they tied in a home match against Cardiff City, by (0‑0). In the last 10 home matches Blackburn Rovers has won 5, tied 4 and lost 1. They have presented defensive consistency, since they have only suffered goals in 1 of the last 4 matches, and their offense has scored frequently, since they have scored goals in 3 of the last 4 matches for this competition.

Blackburn Rovers comes to this game with a tie, to zero, in the reception to Cardiff, adding in this way the third straight game without losing in this second English division. Facing an opponent who is going through a very bad moment, mister Tony Mowbray should privilege the maintenance of the ball possession and the organized attacks through the corridors. However, in some moments of the match it should act in a more direct way. Adam Armstrong is Blackburn Rovers' best finisher with 5 goals scored in the league. For this match, the home captain cannot count on Lewis Travis and Bradley Dack, both injured.

Confirmed Lineup: Thomas Kaminski, Daniel Ayala, Darragh Lenihan, Ryan Nyambe, Amari Bell, Corry Evans, Bradley Johnson, John Buckley, Tyrhys Dolan, Adam Armstrong, Ben Brereton.

Analysis Nottm Forest

The away team is currently in the 22th position of the league, no points won yet, after 4 losses. In the penultimate match, they lost in an away match against Huddersfield Town, by (1‑0). In the last match, they lost in a home match against Bristol City, by (1‑2). In the last 10 away matches Nottingham Forest has won 1, tied 5 and lost 4.

In this competition, they have a sequence of 4 losses in the last matches. Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded at least one goal in each of the last 4 matches, and their offense hasn’t been one of their best features, as they haven’t scored any goals in 3 of the last 4 matches for this competition. In 15 matches, they have conceded the first goal 10 times and have never been able to turn the score around. In the last 20 away matches for all competitions there is 1 period that stands out: they have scored 8 of their 22 goals between minutes (76'‑90').

Nottingham Forest comes to this game with a defeat, by 1-2, in the reception to Bristol City, adding in this way the fourth consecutive defeat in this second English division: the only goal of the match was signed by Luke Freeman. Due to this terrible moment, the managers hired Chris Hughton for the position of coach. Now, on this match against Blackburn Rovers, the new mister should keep the team in 4-3-3 with Luke Freeman, Sammi Ameobi and Lewis Grabban being the most advanced pieces of the team: the first player mentioned is the best scorer of Nottingham Forest with 1 goal scored. It should be noted that visitors exhibit several gaps in maintaining ball possession and finishing. Out of this game are Joe Worrall, Harru Arter and Joe Lolley due to injury.

Confirmed Lineup: Brice Samba, Tobias Figueiredo, Scott Mckenna, Nicholas Ioannou, Cyrus Christie, Sammy Ameobi, Ryan Yates, Jack Colback, Joe Lolley, Luke Freeman, Lewis Grabban.
