Blackburn Rovers F.C. vs Newcastle United F.C. Prediction 27 February 2024

Blackburn are currently in sixteenth place in the league, where it got there after misfires with Birmingham (1:0), Preston (2:2), Cardiff (0:0) and Norwich (1:1). But in the Cup, the Riversiders predictably dealt with the much weaker Cambridge United (5:2) and Wrexham (4:1).

Newcastle left Sunderland (3:0) and Fulham (2:0) out of the tournament, which at least slightly brightened up their not very successful season. Prior to the match, the Magpies suffered a crushing fiasco 1:4 against Arsenal, which is why their chances of finishing in the top 4 of the Premier League for the second year in a row are negligible.

As for us, it is in the Cup that Newcastle expect to reach the victorious end. In this situation, we don’t think that the modest Blackburn will provide them with worthy resistance.
