🗞️ Team News: Blackburn Rovers

It’s our opinion that Rovers should kick off with a 3-4-2-1 formation for this game, handing starts to Balázs Tóth, Tom Atcheson, Scott Wharton, Sean McLoughlin, Ryan Alebiosu, Adam Forshaw, Moussa Baradji, Harry Pickering, Ryoya Morishita, Todd Cantwell and Yuki Ohashi.

📋 Team News: West Bromwich Albion

West Bromwich Albion boss James Morrison has to currently contend with reduced team options. Max O'Leary (unknown injury), Mikey Johnston (fatigue fracture), Karlan Grant (Hamstring injury) and Tammer Bany (Torn thigh muscle) won’t be making appearances.

We’re of the thinking that The Baggies will likely utilise a 4-4-2 lineup by sending out Josh Griffiths, Daniel Imray, Nathaniel Phillips, George Campbell, Callum Styles, J. Jimoh-Aloba, Jayson Molumby, Ousmane Diakité, Isaac Price, Josh Maja and Aune Heggebö.

💡 Prediction

We envisage that West Bromwich Albion and Blackburn Rovers should both be able to score here although it’s hard to pick a clear winner.

It’s looking like it could well end up as a draw. We therefore see a very even match with a 1-1 score draw at the conclusion of the game.
