Swansea City vs Blackburn Rovers Prediction and Betting Tips | February 22nd 2025

The EFL Championship returns with a fresh set of fixtures as Swansea City and Blackburn Rovers lock horns at the Swansea.com Stadium on Saturday. The Swans have failed to taste victory at home since the turn of the year and will head into the weekend looking to end this dry spell.

Swansea City continue to struggle for results in the bottom half of the Championship table as they suffered a 3-1 defeat against Stoke City at the bet365 Stadium last Saturday.

Alan Sheehan’s men have now lost seven of their last eight matches across all competitions, with a 1-0 victory over Bristol City on February 9 being the exception.

Swansea City have picked up 37 points from their 33 Championship matches so far to sit 17th in the league standings, eight points above the relegation zone.

Blackburn Rovers, on the other hand, continue their push for post-season football as they picked up a 2-0 victory over Plymouth Argyle at Ewood Park last time out.

David Lowe’s side have won three of their most recent four matches, having managed just one victory from the nine games preceding this run since mid-December.

With 51 points from 33 matches, Blackburn are fifth in the league standings, three points above sixth-placed West Bromwich Albion in the final playoff spot.
