Bet on Blackburn vs PrestonHonours Even at Ewood Park
Blackburn have been one of the surprise packages in the Championship this season. They sit seventh, winning 12 times and collecting 42 points. Since taking over last February, John Eustace has done a great job at Ewood Park.
Preston had a tough first half to the season, hovering just above the drop zone. However, they have kicked on under Paul Heckingbottom, losing just one of their last seven league matches to move within touching distance of the top half.
Blackburn’s form has halted after three straight Championship losses, but three points on Friday would put them back into the play-off places. North End would go 11th with an away victory.
Despite their poor run of results, Blackburn are the favourites to get the win on home soil. However, Preston have been tough to beat under Heckingbottom and could cause Rovers problems at Ewood Park.
