Blackburn Rovers vs Stoke City Prediction: Rovers on three games winless streak

Blackburn Rovers will welcome Stoke City at Ewood Park in Game Week 14 of the English Championship. Rovers are on three games winless streak. Who will come out on top after 90 minutes?

Since they won the match 1-0 against Swansea City at Ewood Park on October 19, Blackburn Rovers could not win for the last three consecutive matches in the Championship against West Bromwich Albion, Watford, and Sheffield United. This puts them below the playoffs position and dropped to eighth position in the league table with two points less than West Brom who are at the sixth position. The latest defeat faced on home soil Ewood Park, with Rovers having not lost a single home league game this campaign and 16 points achieved from seven games played in this stadium. This would appear to be matched by no other team except perhaps Leeds United, Sunderland, Watford, and now Sheffield United.

Stoke City kicked off their November calendar in style on Saturday at the bet365 Stadium with a win over Derby. Stoke City had gone through a series of defeats in October, but they finally broke the four-match winless streak when Ben Gibson scored a late goal against Derby to move up to 16th place in the Championship standings. Under Alex Neil and Steven Schumacher's management, Stoke City never had that one go-to goal-scorer until Leicester City loanee Tom Cannon arrived into the club, who has caught the eye of higher-tier clubs.

Despite their hard game against Sheffield United recently, Blackburn is a good team when playing in Ewood Park and must be considered as a stiff test for Stoke on their visit there on the Wednesday night. Stoke has not won in any of their last five matches when playing away in other competitions and will be expected to experience a tough time in Lancashire against Blackburn.
