Prediction: 2-1
Blackburn Rovers
Nottingham Forest will be looking to build on back-to-back wins over Hull City and Wigan Athletic when they welcome Blackburn Rovers at their City Ground. The Reds have been producing thrilling displays in festive fixtures, and they must be high on spirits ahead of Wednesday’s football game against Blackburn Rovers. The Riversiders, on the other hand, suffered a 2-1 loss at Huddersfield Town in their last league match.
Blackburn Rovers have been having their ups and downs of late, and it is no wonder they are considered underdogs in the midweek fixture against Nottingham Forest. The Reds are a real force to be reckoned with at home, and we predict that they are going to prove their worth on the field. You should bear in mind, though, that Forest are after their first win over Blackburn since January 18, 2014.
