Middlesbrough vs Blackburn: Top Free Betting Tips

Blackburn Rovers dropped three points in the previous game and they have another away duel for the upcoming fixture against Middlesbrough on Saturday, 15 October. The Boro also lost the last game but they will be determined to start where they left off at home with a victory previously.

Draw

Blackburn Rovers have not lost a single meeting against Middlesbrough in the last six H2Hs and won three of them. However, the team is currently without consistency as they are making turns of defeats, losing three of the last five. The Riversiders lost the last three away outings in a row as well. On the contrary, the Boro have also registered only one victory in the previous five games and won the last home game after two winless games. So we think that the teams will share the points at the end of ninety minutes.

Under 2.5 Goals

None of the last five H2Hs have crossed the total of 2.5 goals and both the Boro and Rovers remained unable to score more than once in that duration. Blackburn Rovers have hit the back of the net five times in the last five outings while Middlesbrough added a total of only six goals in the previous five home meetings. Given this, it would be a surprise to witness this game with a low-scoring total.

Both Teams to Score: Yes

The Rovers have lagged in the recent away outings in their offensive approach but they have been on the scoring side in all of the latest H2Hs at the home of Middlesbrough. The Boro have also leaked goals in three of the previous two games. On the other hand, the Boro couldn’t produce a winning momentum at home recently but they have managed to score in five of the last six hosting games. Four of the previous five H2Hs at the Boro’s home featured BTTS patterns and we predict the same trend for this clash.

Middlesbrough vs Blackburn Rovers: Team News and Match Preview

Middlesbrough

The Boro are still without a victory in away outings this season and lost in the consecutive fourth visit previously against Millwall by 2-0. After having only three victories in 13 attempts, the team is currently present in the twenty-first position on the table. Zack Steffan will be out of the selection due to knee problems.

Blackburn Rovers

The Riversiders restricted the home side Wigan Athletic from scoring until an hour but after leaking the only goal shortly after that, the team concluded a 1-0 defeat for them. However, seven victories in the 14 league outings have kept the Rovers in the seventh position. There is no fitness or suspension issue in the team coming into this game.
