Both sides lost their last outings and need a response so goals should follow.
Blackburn conceded too many in recent matches to trust a low scoring game here.
This is an opinion, not advice. A model wrote it from the form and the prices on this page. It has no team news and it is not a promise of any result. The call settles itself when the game ends, win or lose. Never stake money you cannot afford to lose. How our calls work
Built from: Form from settled results on this site. Prices from the odds feed.
The market makes Sheffield United the side to beat here at 41%, but only just, so this reads as a close call rather than a mismatch. Our model lands on Draw, and it backs that with a 1 unit stake. This looks like a tight match between two sides lacking wins. A draw seems the most likely outcome at Ewood Park.
Blackburn Rovers come in poor, winning 28% of 40 on record. 5 of their 21 home games went their way, and the numbers point to a fairly even scoring record. Right now they are on 1 loss in a row.
Sheffield United come in patchy, winning 43% of 40 on record. 7 of their 20 away games went their way, and the numbers point to a side that scores freely. Right now they are on 1 loss in a row.

Our call sits at 3.50, and we only stake it because the reasons for it outweigh the reasons against.
Across 2 past meetings SHU have had the better of it, 2 wins to 0, with 0 drawn. Squads change, so read it as colour rather than proof.
We back Draw for 1 unit. It settles itself when the game ends, win or lose, and it goes on the record either way. This is an opinion read off the form and the prices on this page, not advice, and never a promise of a result.
Prices come from the public feed and move all the time. Always check the price on the bookmaker site before you stake.

Old meetings are worth less than they look. Squads change, managers change, and a result from two seasons ago tells you almost nothing about this one.
Here is the site model prediction for a draw at Ewood Park. Both teams are lacking wins so a tight match is expected. However Sheffield United do have slightly better recent form than Blackburn. What ...
