Blackburn Rovers and Stoke City meet this weekend with both knowing a win would give their playoff hopes a serious boost.
The hosts have won twice in their last six games as they struggle to close games out in recent weeks. Losses to Huddersfield and Stoke, in the return fixture, have hampered their playoff push and there isn’t the air of optimism around Ewood Park that was present early on in the season.
Stoke City won just once in the past six games but, equally, only tasted defeat on one occasion too. with the side picking up 7 points from a possible 18. This has stopped them pushing into the playoff places but, despite their less than ideal form, they are only two points behind Watford in sixth place.
This match looks as though it will be a really tight one as both sides struggle to find wins in recent weeks but still possess the quality to be a danger in the final third. Blackburn will hope that home advantage will see them emerge victorious but Stoke will represent a tough battle.
With that in mind, we’re predicting a draw in this match with both sides likely to cancel each other out in their battle for three points. There should be enough firepower in both teams to find the net though and we’re forecasting a 1-1 result in this one.
