Prediction: 2-2
Blackburn Rovers
All eyes will be on the Hawthorns when West Bromwich Albion and Blackburn Rovers lock horns in the Championship round 1. The Baggies did remarkably well to beat Rayo Vallecano in their last friendly game and they are likely to stick to their attacking style of play in Saturday’s encounter. The club management has signed the likes of Aune Heggebo, Nat Phillips, and George Campbell in the summer transfer window, while the likes of John Swift, Semi Ajayi, and Ted Cann are no longer parts of the team.
The Riversiders, on the other hand, were producing fine performances in preseason as well and given their attacking potential, there is a big value in betting on over 2.5 goals. Summer signing Sidnei Tavares is widely expected to make his official Championship debut against WBA as well as recruit from Hibernian Lewis Miller.
