Blackburn vs Barnsley Prediction & Betting Tips - Championship
by Daniel Ngulu | in Championship Predictions
Blackburn will be looking to continue with their rise when they host relegation threatened Barnsley in the next round of the Championship. Heading to this game, Blackburn are third with 42 points while Barnsley are 23rd with 14 points. The 7-0 loss to Fulham was Blackburn’s turnaround; they haven’t lost a game since, and could go joint top with a win here. No team has taken advantage of the slump among the top two teams like Blackburn. They have the best run of form in the league in the last five matches, having won all and kept clean sheets in each. Chilean Ben Brereton has been a key man for the team in their rise; he has five goals in the last five matches. In the last game, as Blackburn thrashed Birmingham 4-0, the Chilean scored twice and will want to continue the same way here.
Barnsley came very close to promotion last season, but it doesn’t seem they will be able to reach those heights this time. In fact, avoiding relegation is a major target this time and going into this game, they are seven points below safety and having played a game more. It has been a poor season for the team; they have one win in the last 21 matches and have failed to score in three of their last five matches. In the ,ast 15 matches they have managed just two clean sheets and it will be very tough for them taking on this free scoring Blackburn side. While Blackburn have scored 12 goals in the last five matches, Barnsley have managed just three goals in the same period. On two occasions, Barnsley have conceded two goals and defensively they don’t seem like they’ll trouble their hosts.

Our Blackburn vs Barnsley Prediction
Barnsley are in a very poor run; one win in their last 21 matches and just two clean sheets in the last 15 will fix them as underdogs going to face Blackburn in their current form. Blackburn have five straight wins and are unbeaten in their last seven matches. This is a game they should be winning with relative ease and we will back them to win with a clean sheet.
