Blackburn Rovers will be desperate to halt their winless run but face an uphill task against top-spot chasers Burnley. This Championship match at Ewood Park on Saturday will see the seventh-placed Riversiders come up against the second-placed Clarets, and our prediction is for a game low on goals.

The hosts start this round in 7th place, just outside the playoff positions, with 39 points, although they are only one behind fifth-placed Middlesbrough. They could have been in a better space if not for their recent four-game run where they drew and lost two games each.

Playing at Ewood Park hasn’t quite worked to their advantage though, with only two wins from their last seven home league games, but with six of those producing under 2.5 goals, this match could also go the same way.

Burnley start this round only three points behind leaders Leeds but are coming off consecutive 0-0 draws, which stopped them from erasing that deficit. They still are the team to beat as they remain unbeaten across 12 matches, winning seven and drawing five.

The Clarets also have the best defensive record of the division, conceding only nine goals. Even on the road, with five clean sheets from their last six away league matches, Burnley remain a tough side to even score against.

Our Blackburn vs Burnley Prediction

Burnley lost a chance to close down on leaders Leeds United with consecutive draws. They will look to get back to winning ways, although Blackburn Rovers are not going to make it easy, being in the top-six race themselves. The Clarets have the best defensive record of the division and should fancy their chances here against a Blackburn side that hasn’t really hit high notes in their attack, scoring only 28 league goals this year. That’s why this could be a low-scoring game, and our prediction for Blackburn Rovers v Burnley is under 2.5 goals.

Prediction :

 

Less than 2.5 goals
