Blackburn Rovers to Win

Reasoning

Reason for tip

Blackburn look well placed to take advantage of Cardiff’s defensive struggles at Ewood Park. The visitors are yet to keep a clean sheet in eight Championship games and remain winless on their travels this season. Blackburn have scored in seven of their last eight league matches, including a 3-1 victory over Millwall, and should have enough attacking quality to secure the points.

Blackburn Rovers 2-1

Reasoning

Reason for tip

Both teams have scored in each of Blackburn’s last four Championship matches, suggesting another contest with goals at both ends. Cardiff have conceded in all four of their away games this season, while Blackburn have found the net in four consecutive matches. The hosts look capable of edging an entertaining encounter 2-1.

Blackburn can punish Cardiff’s defensive frailties

The best bet is to back Blackburn to beat Cardiff at Ewood Park on Saturday. The visitors have struggled at the back this season and could be in for a tough time against Tony Mowbray’s side.

Both teams have lost more games than they’ve won this season, with Blackburn in 16th having won two and lost three of their eight games, while Cardiff are 21st with one win and three defeats.

The visitors have shown little sign of shoring up their defence. Cardiff have yet to keep a clean sheet after eight Championship games and have conceded on all four of their away days this season.

The visitors will be confident of finding the net, with Blackburn having scored in four consecutive games, including a 3-1 win over Millwall last month. They have also scored in seven of their last eight league games.

Cardiff have not won any of their four Championship away games this season.

Both sides have scored in Blackburn’s last four Championship matches and, with that in mind, a 2-1 home win is the correct-score pick, with Blackburn just edging out Cardiff.
