Blackburn vs West Brom tips and predictions

Well-fought Championship clash likely to entertain

Blackburn and West Brom both sit in sixth place with 18 points in Championship so it's all to play for and both sides will be looking to make a statement.

Any result looks possible here. The evidence is leaning towards the draw. Considering how they've looked recently, you can expect this to be tight. A goalless stalemate is the pick but it's certainly not something to go mad about.

There have been some notable displays in defence by both sides. Solid on their own soil, Blackburn haven't conceded during their most recent 3 home matches. Meanwhile West Brom have only conceded 0.7 goals per game on average in their last 3 away matches.

In previous matches in this head-to-head, 3 of the last 7 have ended in a draw.

Don't be surprised if the two sides cancel each other out in a war of attrition. It's not standout value but the No BTTS bet seems fair enough.

Blackburn have drawn 8 of their last 20 matches on their own soil added to the fact that West Brom have drawn 6 of their last 16 away matches. Their most recent stalemate was when they shared the spoils with Oxford Utd last Saturday. It's not the most exciting thing you'll read today and it feels like a match to be on your guard about but the draw is food for thought. Deadlock is the pick after what looks set to be a close encounter.
