Bitesize Prediction: Huddersfield vs Blackburn – 10/04/23

Competition: Championship

Market: Over 1.5 goals

Odds: 4/11 @ 888sport

Looking to extend on their remarkable recent flurry, Huddersfield will welcome Blackburn to the John Smith’s Stadium on Monday lunchtime.

Starting with the hosts, while many might have been shocked to see Neil Warnock arrive at the John Smith’s Stadium back in February, Huddersfield have only continued on a remarkable run under their veteran boss. Last seen on Friday afternoon putting in another thrilling display as they claimed an action-packed 3-2 victory away at Watford, the Terriers have certainly breathed life back into their charge for survival. Skyrocketing out of the drop zone and with the mood in their camp at a season-high, the Yorkshire-based outfit should be smelling the chance to make another Championship statement here. In fact, along with marking their return from the international break with a remarkable 4-2 romp at home against promotion contenders Middlesbrough, Warnock’s high-flying squad have won each of their last three appearances. Really finding a clinical edge in the final third, it should also be noted that Huddersfield have bagged eight strikes on their three-match winning run.

As for the visitors, while Blackburn might still be hanging onto their spot in the play-off places, it is no secret that Jon Dahl Tomasson’s men are in the midst of an extended struggle. Last seen on Friday afternoon putting in another downbeat display on home soil as they were hit with a 2-0 loss at the hands of Norwich, the Rovers now face a major battle in their bid to claim a top-six finish. Heading into the international break with a 3-2 defeat away at Sheffield United on March 19th, the Lancashire-based outfit have lost four of their last five Championship appearances. With that run highlighted by another 3-2 loss against Stoke last month, Blackburn have continued to show some rather glaring defensive issues. In fact, Tomasson’s side have recorded just a single Championship clean sheet from their last eight outings – a run that stems all the way back to February 21st.

Bet: Over 1.5 goals at Huddersfield vs Blackburn 4/11 for Monday’s Championship matchup @ 888sport
