Blackburn to win
We kick off our predictions for this match by caking Blackburn to win. Rovers are flying high in the league and will be desperate to rebound from their midweek loss to Coventry. Thankfully, they're playing the basement boys here. On top of just sitting at different ends of the table, the two sets of form are vastly different too. Blackburn have won four of their last five games whilst Huddersfield have managed to win just one of their past five games whilst losing three. Things get even more black and white when focussed on home and away form; Blackburn have won their last five at home with Huddersfield winless across their last five away. Huddersfield haven't won at Ewood Park since 2016 either!
Under 2.5 goals
Our next tip for this match is for it to go under 2.5 goals. Blackburn have seen three of their last five games go south of the 2.5 mark with a game average of 2.0 goals whilst Huddersfield have seen each of their last four matches go under 2.5 goals with just four goals seen in total across that period. Finally, on top of the recent form shown, the last time these two met they played out a goalless draw. With all that factored in, the odds on offer are seriously attractive!

Can Blackburn bounce back from defeat?
These two sides might be located at different ends of the table with Blackburn second and Huddersfield bottom but after Rovers lost to Coventry last time out both sides will take a slightly different view into this game. Huddersfield will be buoyed knowing Blackburn aren't perfect whilst Blackburn will not be remotely complacent stepping into this match! It should make for an interesting match up.
Blackburn will be without a couple of players in this game as they look to rebound from their loss in the week. Sam Barnes is injured whilst Jake Garrett was red carded just six minutes after coming off the bench in that aforementioned defeat.
Blackburn Predicted lineup – Kaminski, Hyam, Ayala, Wharton, Travis, Morton, Wharton, Brittain, Szmodics, Diaz, Hirst
Huddersfield are battling away to move off the foot of the Championship table but that's going to be hard to do here with five players ruled out through injury; Faustino Anjorin is arguably the biggest miss of those stuck on the sidelines.
Huddersfield Predicted lineup – Nicholls, Helik, Spencer, Nakayama, Ruffels, Camara, Holmes, Kasumu, Jackson, Rudoni, Rhodes
