Blackburn Rovers will welcome Derby County to Ewood Park this Saturday for a matchday 15 Championship clash. Off the back of recent good runs, Blackburn are 18th and Derby 11th in the league standings. Read on for our prediction of the match.
Blackburn’s last three league matches have been more fruitful than the earlier 10. They are coming off a 1-0 away win at Bristol City, their third straight victory.
In that run they also beat Southampton and Leicester City. It hasn’t been a great run at home for the Rovers, winning just four of their 16 points. Having registered their first in the latest game they hosted, Blackburn will be hopeful here.
Derby County have won all their last four matches, in the process moving to within three points of the top six. They left it late for a 2-1 victory at home to Hull last time out.
Now they face an opponent that has proven tough over the years. Of their 20 points so far, the Rams have only managed eight on the road, a stat they’ll be looking to improve on.
That will meet some resistance from the Blackburn side, which they’ve lost to in the last two away matches. Derby only have one win in their last six meetings with Blackburn.

Our Blackburn vs Derby County Prediction
After a poor run to start their season, Blackburn seem to have turned the bend. They also posted their first home win last time out and will be inspired here. Their opponents might also be on a good run but haven't done well away from home, and especially at Ewood Park.
This is a match Blackburn have enjoyed over the past few seasons and will feel is another opportunity to better their home form. Our prediction for Blackburn Rovers v Derby County is that Blackburn Rovers wins.
