Blackburn Rovers to Win at Half Time and Full Time
The reason why Blackburn Rovers are such clear favourites in this game is not just because they are in Championship, while Hartlepool United is in League Two, they are also in better form at the moment.
Right now, Blackburn Rovers is the only team with two wins in the first two rounds of the new Championship season, while Hartlepool United has just one point from the first two games in the league. So, we expect the home team to win the game and do so after leading at half time.
Over 2.5 Total Goals
These two teams did not met in recent years and we don't have theirh2h data to assist us out in our next prediction. Despite this, we can see this game going over 2.5 total goals.
We mostly expect this because we feel that Blackburn will be able to put multiple goals past Hartlepool. After all, Hartlepool conceded four goals in the first two games in League Two, while Blackburn scored four in Championship. So, we can see this being a high-scoring game.
