Prediction: 1-1
Blackburn Rovers
Derby County and Blackburn Rovers take on each other at Pride Park Stadium in what is expected to be one of the most entertaining games of Tuesday’s program. The Rams failed to extend their winning run in the Championship to four games at the weekend as they were beaten by Rotherham United at AESSEAL New York Stadium, but fans still have faith in new coach Frank Lampard. Derby County have been impressive at home ground at the start of the season, but seeing that the Riversiders managed to hold Aston Villa to a draw in their last league match, we believe that there is a big value in betting on draw. In four of their last five meetings in the Championship under 2.5 goals have been netted, meaning that a low-scoring affair is on the horizon at Pride Park Stadium.
