Blackburn Rovers Newcastle United betting prediction

The away team comes to this 2nd leg match in disadvantage, since despite the 1st leg draw they have conceded 1 goal at home. This is a team that usually gets better results in away matches than at home, since in the last 30 matches they register 2 wins, 7 draws and 6 losses in away matches, with 12 goals scored and 23 conceded; against 3 wins, 2 draws and 10 losses at their stadium, with 11 goals scored and 20 conceded. In their last match, for the Premier League, they got an away loss against Chelsea by (2‑1). In the last 10 away matches Newcastle United has won 2, tied 4 and lost 4. Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 8 of the last 10 matches. In 15 matches, they have conceded the first goal 7 times and have never been able to turn the score around. In the last 13 away matches for all competitions there are 2 periods that stand out: they have scored 4 of their 10 goals between minutes (16'‑30'); they have conceded 7 of their 17 goals between minutes (76'‑90').

Watching their last 5 away games, all for the Premier League, Newcastle recorded only 1 win, 2 draws and 2 losses, scoring a total of 4 goals and conceding 8 goals, thus showing difficulties in both sectors. The team's highlight in this competition is midfielder M. Ritchie, who scored 1 goal for his team. It is worth commenting that Newcastle come to this game in a bad time, and comes from 6 consecutive games without winning, being 3 losses and 3 draws. For this confrontation, the coach should play mostly in an offensive way, seeking to make a good start, but not neglecting his backward sector, taking advantage of the chances of counterattack, thus acting with his best players.
