Swansea vs Blackburn Predictions & Betting Tips

Swansea vs Blackburn Predictions

Blackburn got off to a positive kick-off to the 2022/23 Championship campaign thanks to a 1-0 victory over QPR last weekend at Ewood Park. It was a promising beginning to Jon Dahl Tomasson’s managerial career in the second tier of English football. Overall, the team looked great on the occasion, controlling the game from the start to the end. They limited the rivals to zero shots on target seven days ago. Can the Riversiders back it up with another strong display this Saturday when they travel to Wales for the second round clash against Swansea City?

Match Preview & Team News

Swansea began the season with a 1-1 draw at Rotherham last time out. It was an open affair that could have gone either way but we must say that the team’s lone goal came from center-back Harry Darling. Head coach Russell Martin can certainly be worried for the lack of meticulousness in his team’s back line ahead of this tie. The Swans did not keep a clean sheet in any of three pre-season exhibitions against Forest Green, Plymouth, and Charlton. They could struggle defensively here against the Riversiders.  Read on our Championship betting tips and predictions below.

Current Form And Home & Away Performances

Tomasson has obviously found the right chemistry with his new team as Blackburn Rovers look rock-solid at the back at the moment. Blackburn kept three straight clean sheets, if we count friendly wins over Hartlepool United and Lincoln City as well. Since they did not concede a single attempt on target last time out against QPR, you can easily get the appeal for the away win pick here. The appeal quickly vanishes when you look at the head to head record, though. None of the previous eleven H2H outings between these two rivals ended in an away win. Blackburn have a horrendous record of four defeats and a draw in the last five visits to Swansea.

Goals Markets Betting Preview

Only one of the last four H2H clashes between these two rivals saw three or more goals scored. We like the Under 2.5 goals FT pick at the odds of 8/11.

Betting Preview

Although Blackburn left a stronger impression last weekend, we rather fancy the draw at the 9/4 odds knowing about their dreadful record in the away ties against the Swans.
