The English Championship reserved the match Blackburn Rovers – Hull City for us, counting for the 6th round. Before this clash, the home team will host Luton Town in the 5th round. In the same manner, the visitors also have an away 5th round match at Swansea city. |
Blackburn Rovers are currently in the 8th spot with 8 points, and a record of 2W – 2D – 1L. The hosts allow many goal scoring chances and that cost them to drop 5 points in the last 2 rounds. In their last home match, they registered just 2 shot on target, while their opponents registered 11. However, they have a positive goal difference, 7 goals scored and 6 conceded. |
On the other hand, Hull City were promoted to the Championship after a hard fought League One season. However, they have been struggling to get back to winning ways. The visitors registered an impressive 1-4 victory in the first round of the season. But since then, they have lost 3 consecutive games, and drew in the last round. Hull City have not found the net in 4 of the 5 rounds played so far. |
Both teams drew in the last league round and they lost their respective matches before that. So, this will be a match with a lot of surprises, as they will be looking to come back to winning ways. Yet, Blackburn Rovers have the home advantage and they are in good form, so we will back the home team’s win this match. |
