Blackburn vs Walsall Prediction & Betting Tips - Carabao Cup
by Kennedy Kechula in Carabao Cup Predictions
Blackburn Rovers will be out to make it two wins in two when they host Walsall on Tuesday in the League Cup. This is a single-leg match and the winner will advance to the second round. Blackburn Rovers are coming off the back of a 2-1 win over West Bromwich Albion to begin the new English Championship season. Jon Dahl Tomasson’s charges were one of eight teams to begin the campaign with victory as they won 2-1 at home. This should have them confident of winning again here. Rovers managed to reach the round of 16 in last season’s League Cup campaign. Before playing West Brom, Blackburn lost their final pre-season match against Spanish side Girona 3-2. That ended a five-match unbeaten run where they had won three times. Blackburn have defeated Walsall twice in their most recent encounters played in 2018 in League One.
Walsall were not as fortunate to begin their English League Two campaign with a win as Blackburn. Mat Sadler’s men lost 2-1 away to Morecambe. They will seek to jumpstart their season with a win here. The loss to Morecambe ended a six-match unbeaten run for the Saddlers that included four pre-season friendlies. They won three of those matches. Walsall have proven to be a decent attacking side as they have scored in every single one of their last six matches. Last season Walsall ended a three-season run of losing in the first round of the League Cup. They however did not manage to go beyond the second round.
