Blackburn Rovers
- Blackburn Rovers have won once, drawn twice and lost six of their nine home games in the Championship so far this season, so the odds of 1.82 for the hosts here look a little on the low side.
- Rovers have failed to win any of their most recent three home games, taking just one point from a possible nine.
- For those seeking a more comprehensive outlook, our Blackburn Rovers vs Oxford United prediction will take into account that Rovers have a real goal threat in Andri Gudjohnsen but have only managed 8 goals in 9 home outings this season.
Oxford United
- Oxford United also have a lot of work to do if they want to secure survival in 2025-2026 and they are also in poor form away from home, losing five of their previous nine Championship trips (W2, D2, L5).
- Oxford have also been struggling recently, winning one, drawing two and losing two of their most recent five, although they did beat Ipswich Town 2-1 last time out and drew away at Norwich City.
Key Players
- Andri Gudjohnsen has scored six goals in 14 Championship appearances this term, netting three of Rovers’ last five.
- Will Lankshear is Oxford’s best finisher, with 5 goals in 17 games, making him their most reliable finisher.
Betting Insights
Blackburn’s home struggles and Oxford’s away inconsistencies suggest the draw or away win is the way to go here, but the Blackburn Rovers vs Oxford United betting tips point towards taking the visitors on the double chance line because of Rovers’ poor home form.
Prediction
As for a correct score pick, a tense 1-0 home win looks a good option in this game given both sides’ poor scoring records and questionable defending.
