Wigan vs Huddersfield: Top Free Betting Tips

After dropping points in recent visits, Watford are set to host Blackburn Rovers to play their next game in EFL Championship on Saturday, 11 February. The Rovers have also raised a winless pattern in the league, ending the recent two league games in draws.

Both Teams to Score Prediction: No

Blackburn Rovers have failed to hit the target in two of the last three league outings and remained goalless in two of the previous four away H2Hs against Watford. The Hornets have also kept three clean sheets in the last five games at home. On the scoring end, the Golden Boys scored in four of the last five league duels and hit the target in all of the previous five home H2Hs against the Rovers. Therefore, we expect only Watford to be able to get on the scoresheet in this game.

Total Goals Prediction: Under 2.5 Goals

Getting through a winless sequence, Watford has managed an average of only one goal per game in the last five outings.  On the other hand, Blackburn Rovers have also lagged in this respect and hit the target only three times in the previous five league games. Two of the last four H2Hs of these teams have also ended with low-scoring totals. Given the current numbers, we expect another low-scoring pattern between these teams this time.

Correct Score Prediction: 2-0 to Wigan vs Huddersfield

Watford have hit the target more than once in four of the last five home H2Hs against Blackburn Rovers and added a total of 13 goals. The team has performed the same in two of the last four league games. Blackburn Rovers have also allowed seven goals in the previous three league attempts away from home, leaking at least twice in two of them. Hence, we predict the Hornets to take a 2-0 lead before the final whistle blows in this game.
