Blackburn and WBA are level on 43 points from 39 Championship matches in 2025/2026.
Blackburn (home)
- Blackburn have won four, drawn seven and lost nine of their 20 home matches in the Championship 2025/2026.
- Rovers have drawn their last two home games and look a bit short of cutting edge in terms of the goals they are getting.
West Brom (away)
- WBA have won 4, drawn three and lost 13 of their 20 away matches in the Championship 2025/2026.
- WBA are in better form with two wins, two draws and one defeat in their last five, while Rovers have one win, two draws and two defeats in their five most recent matches.
Head-to-Head
Neither side can afford to lose points, which may lead to a tight, cautious affair at Ewood Park where the visitors have failed to win in their last two visits.
Betting Insights
- James Morrison took over as interim boss of WBA in February 2026 and has done a good job of steadying the ship by going back to basics.
- The Baggies are much better organised and less gung-ho under his watch as Morrison has simplified the tactics to get players into a compact block and less pressing, but more structured.
- Rovers are more positive under Michael O’Neill, who also took over in February 2026, but has made his team tighter and more compact too.
- He is not the most positive of managers and his teams will always be compact and strong on the counter-attack, but with a little bit of flair on top.
- So this looks set to be a chess match, but the odds for a draw at 3.15 still look attractive given how close these two sides usually are.
Key Players
Aune Selland Heggeboe has been a reliable source of goals for the West Midlands club with nine goals in 39 Championship matches, while Yuki Ohashi leads the line for Rovers with eight goals in 39 .
Prediction
Hayden Carter has scored two in the last five for the hosts and can offer some threat from deep, so take a low-scoring draw as the most likely outcome.
