Blackburn Rovers Preston North End betting prediction


Betting suggestion:

The most likely scenario for this match will be Blackburn to not win. It is true that the home team works with the support of their fans, however, on this round it hosts an "enemy" that comes from two consecutive away draws. In addition, Blackburn is going through an irregular moment at their stadium. Thus, it is expected that Preston will be able to earn at least one point in this round.

Analysis Blackburn

After 10 wins, 6 draws and 10 losses, the home team is in the 13th position, havinf won 36 points so far. In the last match, they have lost in an away match against Nottingham Forest by (3‑2), after in the previous match they have lost (2‑1) an away match against Huddersfield Town. This is a team that usually plays better at home, where they have won 23 points, against only 13 points in away matches. In their last match, for the FA Cup, they got an away loss against Birmingham City by (2‑1). In the last 10 home league matches Blackburn Rovers has a record of 5 wins, 4 draws and 1 loss, so they have won 19 points out of 30 possible.

In this competition, they haven’t lost any of the last 8 home matches. In their home league matches the most frequent result at half‑time was the 0‑0 (6 out of 13 matches). Their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored goals in 9 of the last 10 matches for this competition. They have conceded the first goal in 9 of their 26 matches for this competition, and have only turned the score around in 1.

Blackburn heads into this match with low motivation after a 2-1 away loss for the FA Cup. The home team usually plays in a 4-3-3, favoring a more leisurely style of play and channeling their attack through the center aisle. The two "arrows" pointed at the "enemy" goal will be Rothwell and Armstrong, and the most offensive reference will be Brereton. It is possible that in the most central part of the terrain will e occupied by Travis, Evans and Downing. Blackburn's coach won't be able to count on Richard Smallwood for being punished. Note that Bradley Dack will also be out for injury.

Confirmed Lineup: Christian Walton, Ryan Nyambe, Darragh Lenihan, Amari Bell, Lewis Travis, Tosin Adarabioyo, Lewis Holtby, Corry Evans, Stewart Downing, Adam Armstrong, Sam Gallagher.
Coach: T. Mowbray.

Analysis Preston

The away team is currently in the 10th position of the league, with 39 points won, after 11 wins, 6 draws and 9 losses. In the penultimate match, they lost in a home match against Reading, by (0‑2). In the last match, they lost in a home match against Middlesbrough, by (0‑2). This is a team that usually makes good use of the home advantage, since they have won 10 points in away matches and 29 points at their stadium, with 29 goals scored and 17 goals conceded at home, against 7 goals scored and 15 conceded in away matches. In their last match, for the FA Cup, they got a home loss against Norwich City by (2‑4). In the last 10 away league matches Preston North End has a record of 2 wins, 4 draws and 4 losses, so they have won 10 points out of 30 possible. Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 9 of the last 10 matches, and their offense hasn’t been one of their best features, as they haven’t scored any goals in 7 of the last 10 matches for this competition. In their away matches there is a tendency for few goals, since 10 of the last 12 matches for this competition have ended with Under 2,5 goals. In 26 matches for this competition, they have conceded the first goal 10 times and have only turned the score around in 1.

Preston comes unmotivated for this match after a home defeat, by 2-4, against Norwich, for the FA Cup. Like the "enemy" of this round, Preston usually plays in a 4-3-3, where the three most advanced players are Maguire, Nugent and Barkhuizen. The visiting club when investing in the offensive process usually does so through the right aisle, taking advantage of the depth offered by right winger Fisher. One of Preston's weaknesses is maintaining possession of the ball and losing it relatively easily. Coach Alex Neil should have all the players available for this match.

Confirmed Lineup: Declan Rudd, Joe Rafferty, Ben Davies, Tom Clarke, Patrick Bauer, Josh Harrop, Ben Pearson, Paul Gallagher, Alan Browne, Tom Barkhuizen, Sean Maguire.
Coach: A. Neil.
