Our prediction for this Championship match:
Ewood Park will host Wednesday’s football game between Blackburn Rovers and Watford. The Riversiders are running down a blind alley at the moment, with the team losing each of their last four league fixtures, and, as things stand now, they are unlikely to book their place in the playoffs. Blackburn are desperate to give fans some cheer, but they will be without Holtby, Ayala, Wharton, Rankin-Costello, and Johnson in the midweek game.
The Hornets, on the other hand, are eyeing their fourth consecutive win in the Championship. Watford are eager to climb to automatic promotion places for the first time this year, and we predict that they will take advantage of the current situation in Blackburn’s dressing room. In Troy Deeney’s absence, Pedro is widely expected to lead the line for the visiting team. All Kabasele, Navarro, Dele-Bashiru, and Foster remain in the recovery room.
