Burnley vs Blackburn Prediction & Betting Tips - Championship
by Ian John in Championship Predictions
Championship duo Burnley and Blackburn Rovers meet this weekend, with both teams amongst the early-season pace-setters in the division. Scott Parker's Clarets sit fifth in the table after three games, a point and one place behind Rovers in fourth. Who will our prediction back to come out on top of this fierce Lancashire derby match?
Burnley led the table after two games, following thumping wins over Cardiff City (5-0) and Luton Town (4-1). However, they lost last time out to Sunderland 1-0. Despite that defeat, Burnley remain the top-scoring team in the division with nine goals and have the second-best defensive record, conceding just two.
They also benefit from an outstanding recent record against Blackburn, winning all the last six and going nine games unbeaten against their opponents today. They have not conceded a goal to Blackburn in any of the previous five matches between the two.
Blackburn Rovers boss John Eustace enjoyed an excellent start to their league campaign, but they were beaten in midweek, 2-1, by Blackpool in the Carabao Cup at Ewood Park. They defeated Oxford United 2-1 in their most recent league game last weekend but are yet to win on the road this season.
Rovers Japanese striker Yuki Ohashi has netted two league goals this season to top score for Blackburn, the same number as Burnley midfielder Josh Brownhill.

Our Burnley vs Blackburn Prediction
Our prediction for Burnley vs. Blackburn Rovers in the Championship is: Burnley to win.
Burnley were beaten 1-0 by Sunderland last time out, but the Clarets will be confident being back at Turf Moor for this fixture. Both teams have started the season well, but both Blackburn's league wins have come against newly promoted teams (Derby and Oxford). Rovers also tasted defeat to Blackpool in the Carabao Cup in midweek, which is less than ideal preparation for this game. Burnley have a superb record against Blackburn of late, and they should extend that here.
