Preston North End vs Blackburn Prediction & Betting Tips - Championship

 by Ian John in Championship Predictions

Preston North End faces Blackburn Rovers in the Championship this Sunday. The two Lancashire giants have had contrasting starts to the campaign. The Lilywhites have struggled and languished in 21st spot in the table, whereas Rovers lie third after an excellent start. Will our prediction for this fierce local derby match favor the form team, or the home side?

North End started the season poorly, losing their opener and shortly after that their manager Ryan Lowe was sacked. Mike Marsh only lasted two games in temporary control before he also left the club. Paul Heckingbottom came in and since then results have improved a little.

They have picked up four points in their last three league games, including a 1-1 draw away to Middlesbrough last weekend. However, their Carabao Cup form is excellent and after a 1-1 draw with Fulham in midweek, they defeated the Premier League 16-15 in a dramatic penalty shootout. 

John Eustace has had an excellent start to his managerial career with Blackburn Rovers. His team remains unbeaten after five Championship games and warmed up for this fixture with a 1-1 draw away to Burnley and then an impressive 3-0 home win over Bristol City last weekend.

The unbeaten start has been achieved despite the sale of star striker Sammie Szmodics, who joined Ipswich Town early in the season. Despite this, Rovers are one of the top scorers in the division and they will hope that firepower will drive them to victory against their local rivals in Sunday's game.

Our Preston North End vs Blackburn Prediction

Our prediction for the Preston North End vs. Blackburn Rovers game in the Championship is: Over 2.5 Goals to be scored.

Preston have seen their fortunes improve slightly under Paul Heckingbottom, but there are still major defensive concerns for this team. That is a real worry when you consider that Blackburn Rovers have been one of the best teams in front of goal in the Championship this season. The data for this game strongly suggests that it will be a game that is likely to see goals at both ends, and the likelihood is that there will be a fair few of them.

More than 80 leagues and competitions are available on this football promotion from bet365. If the team that you have backed takes a two-goal lead at any point in the game, then your bet is a winner. This counts on both single bets and on multiple placed on the full time market, though of course on a multiple it is only the game in question that is marked as a winner, all the other selections still have to win as well. 

A bet placed on any enhanced price is not valid for this offer, nor any bet that is cashed out. If you have partially chased out, the remainder of the stake is paid out as a winner. If your acca selection would have been a loser but for this offer then you will not gain any acca boost winnings. So for example, your team goes 2-0 up so you are paid out as a winner but the end result is 2-2, your bet is still a winner if all the other selections win but you do not gain any acca boost.
