Stoke vs Blackburn: Top Free Betting Tips

After finding back their winning form against Sunderland, Stoke City host Blackburn Rovers in the next EFL Championship fixture on  Saturday, 11 March. The Riversiders are coming into this game after confirming a confident winning streak in the second division.

Match Result Prediction: Blackburn to Win

Stoke City have made the turns of victories and defeats in the recent league games, winning three of the last five. But the team has a difficult task to face in the upcoming challenge as Blackburn Rovers have made five consecutive wins in different competitions. The Potters have also lost the last two home games in a row while the Rovers won the previous two visits successively. Moreover, Blackburn Rovers have also earned three victories in the last four away H2Hs against Stoke City. Therefore, the Riversiders stand with more potential to take away three points in this game.

Both Teams to Score Prediction: Yes

The Potters have hit the target in three of the recent five league games while they have been on the scoring side in four of the last five H2Hs with Blackburn Rovers. The Riversiders have earned successive victories in recent visits but they have also allowed goals in all of the latest away outings. On the other hand, Blackburn Rovers have optimism to create chances in this game as they have not missed the target in any of the last seven away games. The teams have contributed three BTTS patterns in the last five meetings at Stoke’s home and we predict another one in this game.

Correct Score Prediction: 0-2 to Blackburn

Stoke City have scored more than once in only one of the last four home outings. The Potters have not allowed a huge total of goals recently but Blackburn Rovers have secured a decent flow of goals recently, scoring five in the last two attempts. The Riversiders defeated Leicester City in the previous away attempt with a 0-2 lead. Based on these numbers, we expect a 1-2 lead for Blackburn Rovers in this game.

Stoke vs Blackburn: Form, Recent Games, and News

Stoke City Preview

The Potters travelled to Sunderland in the last game and hammered them with a 1-5 victory. The team has earned a total of 12 wins and seven draws in the 35 league games and finds itself in the sixteenth position on the table. All of the players will be ready to make an appearance in this game.

Despite their 1-5 hammering of Sunderland, Stoke will be concerned about Blackburn's visit. They have a winning run against them, winning by a 1-0 margin in their last two duels. However, the Rovers are on a five-match winning run and have not lost in 11 appearances. On the other hand, the Potters have lost three of their last five matches but will look at the two wins in this period to propel them forward.

Blackburn Rovers Preview

With the help of an early goal, the Rovers grabbed crucial three points in the last game against Sheffield United with a narrow lead of 1-0. Blackburn have found a total of 18 wins and four draws in the 35 league games and are present in the fourth position in the standings. There are no fitness issues in the team ahead of this game.

The Rovers have been on an absolute tear in recent weeks and will want to extend their 11-match unbeaten streak. As it stands, they are on a five-match winning streak, laying waste to everyone that has stood in their way. This period has not only seen them dominate fellow Championship outfits but also make little work of Premier League side Leicester City in the FA Cup. Stoke poses a threat to their lively attack on the Championship rankings and they will be wary of the Potters after losing the last two H2H meetings.
