Prediction: 2-1
Nottingham Forest
Blackburn Rovers and Nottingham Forest go head to head at Ewood Park in what is expected to be a close Championship encounter. The Riversiders aim to make amends for a 1-0 loss to Swansea, and they are likely to fight tooth and nail against the Reds. Chile international Brereton returns to the starting XI, while all Pickering, Edun, Gallagher, and Poveda-Ocampo should miss out with injuries.
The Reds, on the other hand, head into the match following a thrilling FA Cup win (4-1) over Leicester City. Nottingham Forest, though, are not regarded as good travelers, which is probably the main reason why home win should be considered. All Loic Mbe Soh, Alex Mighten, and Lewis Grabban are injured for the visiting side. In the first half of the season Blackburn defeated Nottingham 2-1 at the City Ground.
