Blackburn Rovers vs Swansea City Predictions

Tip Reasoning

• Both teams have scored in five of Swansea’s last six games
• Blackburn average 2.00 points per game when playing at home
• Swansea have only won 25% of their away games this season, but have drawn 44%

Blackburn now draw specialists

Blackburn go into this game having drawn each of their last four league ties, having previously not drawn a game all season. They will be looking to change that run of form on Saturday, as they face a visit from a Swansea side who have conceded ten goals in their last five games.

Blackburn’s home form will put them in a good position going into this, averaging a very impressive 2.00 points per game at Ewood Park, and conceding an average of just 0.93 goals per game. Swansea, on the other hand, have won just 25% of their away games this season.

A bet of Blackburn to win looks good odds, but a stronger tip would be to back Blackburn on a double chance, as their recent run of draws may well continue, with Swansea having drawn 44% of their away games this season.

Pushing for the playoffs

With Blackburn Rovers sitting just one point behind sixth-placed Watford, and with a game in hand, they will be hoping for a win on Saturday to really strengthen their bid to make the playoffs. Swansea may also hold some hope of a late surge up the table, as their midweek win over Blackpool has taken them to within five points of the playoffs, despite having had an inconsistent season.

As a result of this, a correct score prediction of 2-1 Blackburn looks good, as the Lancashire side should use their home advantage to put an end to their recent winless run in the league.
