Middlesbrough - Blackburn Rovers predictions and free betting tips [16/03/2024]

On Saturday afternoon, "Middlesbrough" will host "Blackburn Rovers" at "Riverside" in search of a victory that will allow them to continue at least some fight for promotion. While "Boro" is in ninth place in the league table, the visitors have dropped to 18th place, just three points above the relegation zone.

"Middlesbrough"

After a series of inexplicable results, "Middlesbrough" managed to win three rounds in a row and remain within reach of the top six. There are five points to Norwich City, so there's still a chance. A deferred match against Birmingham was played in the middle of the week, which might slightly affect the team's physical readiness.

"Blackburn Rovers"

After changing the head coach, the guests hoped to significantly improve their tournament position, but with quite good play, "Blackburn" at best gets a draw. The team hasn't been able to win since February 10th, and the density of the league table is so high that any defeat could throw John Yustas' team into the relegation zone.

Prediction for the match "Middlesbrough" - "Blackburn Rovers"

Guest centre back Kyle McFadzean will miss this game due to disqualification, which could severely affect Blackburn's prospects in this match. "Middlesbrough" is already the favourite here, and their opponents' squad issues only add confidence that the hosts will achieve a victory today.

Prediction for Team Scores

Despite all the losses, "Blackburn Rovers" attacks well and their potential forward remains quite good. They may not be able to compete in this match, but scoring goals is within their abilities. Both teams scoring is a good choice for this meeting.
