Bristol City vs Blackburn Rovers Predictions
- Bristol City are unbeaten in their last five matches in all competitions
- Bristol City are unbeaten in their last five H2H against Blackburn (W3, D2)
- Blackburn have lost four of their last five league matches
Robins may have turned a corner
Bristol City appeared to have turned a corner following a tricky period of results. The Robins won three times in a 17-game stretch between the middle of September and the end of December 2022 – Nigel Pearson’s side have since gone unbeaten in their last five matches (W1, D4).Bristol City have had a good week, beating Birmingham 4-2 in the league last weekend, before progressing into the Fourth Round of the FA Cup following a 2-1 (AET) victory against Swansea, in midweek. The Robins have a fine record in this fixture, unbeaten in their last five against Blackburn (W3, D2) and Saturday’s hosts make plenty of appeal having recently turned a corner.
Rovers’ recent form is concerning
Blackburn’s recent form will be of great concern to first year head coach, Jon Dahl Tomasson. Rovers have lost four of their last five Championship matches, and were dispatched 4-0 by struggling Rotherham, last Saturday. Last weekend’s capitulation is a worry and Blackburn are easy to avoid on Saturday, in a fixture they have struggled in, in recent times – Blackburn haven’t won any of the last five meetings between these two sides.Bristol City to win in the outright market will be the main selection for Saturday’s game, with a 2-1 home victory forming the correct score prediction. Both teams have scored in each of Bristol City’s last four matches.
