Blackburn Rovers vs Swansea City Match Analysis & Prediction
19/10/2024 5:00 pm
Blackburn Rovers will welcome Swansea City at Ewood Park on Saturday evening looking to end a run of two consecutive defeats.
At a time when Rovers occupy eighth position in the Championship standings, the visitors are down in 11th place.
On the back of a seven-game unbeaten run and three clean sheets in a row, John Eustace would have anticipated that Blackburn would end their schedule before the October international break on a high note.
However, Blackburn surprisingly lost their way, itinially suffering a 3-0 defeat away at a struggling Coventry City side.
That was followed by a last-gasp 2-1 defeat at the hands of Plymouth Argyle, Rovers having now failed to win any of their opening five away matches in the Championship campaign.
As for their home form, though, Eustace’s side have a perfect record, recording four successive victories and scoring 11 goals in the process.
While Blackburn may be free-scoring in front of their own supporters, they now face opposition with the joint third-best defensive record in the division.
Swansea City have conceded just six times in their nine Championship matches, incredibly not letting in more than once in a single game.
Luke Williams will feel frustrated that just 12 points have been picked up in nine matches, but the foundations have been laid for a playoff push if they can improve in the final third.
The Swans are without a win in three matches and have failed to score in the last two, although one of those games ending in a 1-0 defeat away at unbeaten Sheffield United.
Blackburn Rovers vs. Swansea City Head to head
In the previous 15 meetinga between these two teams, Blackburn have claimed five victories while Swansea have won six, and they have drawn in four. Swansea have scored 22 goals and conceded 21 in the process.
