THE PREDICTION

Friday night was an awful one for everyone connected to Blackburn Rovers. Not only were they beaten by Brentford, but also lost Bradley Dack to what looks like a second ACL injury which will rule the talented midfielder out for a long time. An air of gloominess is sure to surround Ewood Park ahead of this match and a tough test is ahead of Tony Mowbray’s men vs Bristol City, who are coming off the back of a comprehensive 0-3 victory over Birmingham. With little at stake for both sides in terms of promotion or relegation, the two teams may through caution to the wind here and take more risks offensively. With that in mind, consider over 2.5 goals scored.
