Southampton vs Blackburn Rovers Predictions

• Southampton have won 14 of their last 16 games across all competitions
• The Saints have won their last five home matches
• Blackburn have lost nine games of the road this term

Saints to extend winning streak

Southampton’s surge up the Championship table continued with a 2-1 victory over Derby on Saturday. The Saints have reeled off six victories in a row across all competitions, and they’ve moved within six points of second-placed Ipswich with five games left to play.

The Saints’ brilliant run has seen them win 14 of their last 16 matches, while they’re on a five-game winning run at St Mary’s ahead of Tuesday’s clash with Blackburn.

The Saints all but solidified their place in the playoffs with a 5-1 drubbing of Wrexham last week, and they can boost their hopes of sneaking into an automatic promotion place on Tuesday night.

Blackburn have improved under Michael O’Neill, but they’ve only won one of their last four matches in the Championship, scoring just twice. The visitors have suffered nine defeats on their travels this term, and they’re no match for the league’s form side.
