Prediction: 1-2
Sheffield United
Ewood Park will host Saturday’s football game between Blackburn Rovers and Sheffield United. The Riversiders experienced all sorts of problems at the back in a 7-0 loss to Fulham, meaning that the lack of confidence could prove to be a big problem for the home team. To make things even worse for the hosts, defender Jan Paul van Hecke will have to serve his ban against Sheffield United.
The Blades, on the other hand, head into the match following a 1-1 draw with Nottingham Forest. Sheffield Utd aim to move closer to the playoffs berth, and they should take advantage of Blackburn’s shaky defence. Experienced attacker Billy Sharp is pushing for a start, while the likes of Berge, Burke, Davies, Freeman, and O’Connell should all miss out through injuries. You should bear in mind that the Blades emerged triumphant in each of the previous three meetings with the Riversiders in all competitions.

The Blades finished the 2016/2017 League One campaign in top position in the standings, with the team collecting exactly 100 points in the process. Sheffield United last competed in the Premier League in the 2006/2007 season and they were more than unfortunate not to secure the top flight survival.
