Blackburn Rovers vs Bristol City Prediction and Betting Tips | December 12, 2023
Blackburn Rovers and Bristol City get the ball rolling in round 21 of the EFL Championship when they square off at Ewood Park on Tuesday (December 12).
Blackburn were left empty handed for a second straight game, as they fell to a 2-0 home defeat to Leeds United on Saturday. That followed a 3-1 loss against Sheffield Wednesday at the Hillsborough Stadium on December 2, which snapped their two-game winning streak.
With 28 points from 20 games, Blackburn are 11th in the Championship, two points and three places above Bristol.
Like Blackburn, Bristol have also failed to find their feet, as they could only salvage a 1-1 draw with Huddersfield Town at the weekend.
Liam Manning’s side have failed to taste victory in three games, losing twice, since scrapping a 3-2 win over Middlesbrough on November 25.
While the Robins will look to arrest their slump, they have struggled away from home, going without a win in five games.
