Blackburn won't win
Blackburn Rovers' form has gradually gotten worse recently. John Dal Tomasson's men looked great towards the start of their season, winning their first four matches; their fortunes have changed since then, as they've lost back-to-back games by the same 3:0 scoreline. We would like to mention that most of Blackburn's wins came at home; while they have a perfect record at home, Blackburn have lost two from three games on the road. Bradford City, on the other hand, have won three of their last four matches; they have no losses in three home games so far this season. Considering Bradford City have the advantage of playing at home, we don't think they'll lose at the end of regulation time.
At least one side will fail to score
Blackburn Rovers have impressed and disappointed with equal measure in goalscoring terms; while they kept five clean sheets in their last eight games, they did not score in their last two matches. Because of this, Blackburn's matches usually don't feature goals at both ends; at least one team blanked in seven of their last eight matches. We would also like to point out that these teams have met four times, and both teams did not score in any of those games. On that note, we shouldn't expect goals at both ends.
