Preview & Prediction: Huddersfield Town vs Blackburn Rovers

Huddersfield Town and Blackburn Rovers will face each other in the Championship. Based on current form, Huddersfield seems to have the momentum with a good run of form and unbeaten in their last three games. However, they have been struggling to score goals, failing to find the back of the net in two of their last five games. Meanwhile, Blackburn Rovers has scored 8 times in their last 5 fixtures and have been able to register 3 BTTS results. Previous encounters between these two have been tight with BTTS landing 65% of the time, and with both teams looking for the win, another draw is unlikely. We predict Blackburn Rovers to come out on top in this fixture due to their more balanced form and superior goal-scoring ability.

The Rovers have come away empty-handed from their past three visits to the John Smith’s Stadium, and they will be hoping to change that. Huddersfield beat Watford 3-2 at Vicarage Road on April 7 to climb out of the relegation zone. After a 1-1 draw with Norwich City on March 15, Neil Warnock’s team has won three straight games, scoring eight goals and allowing four. Huddersfield sit 20th in the Championship with 42 points from 40 games, equal in points with 19th-placed Cardiff City and one point just above danger zone.

Meanwhile, Blackburn Rovers are losing ground in the fight for the playoffs after falling to Norwich City 2-0 at Ewood Park on Friday. Jon Dahl Tomasson’s team has now lost their past three games in all competitions, including a 3-2 loss to Sheffield United in the FA Cup quarterfinals.

Blackburn are sixth in the league with 61 points from 39 games, one point ahead of seventh-placed Norwich.
