Blackburn vs Wolves predictions and betting tips for this Saturday’s live TV Championship fixture with three bets selected and reasons for each one.
Blackburn host Wolves at Ewood Park on Saturday evening and we’ve got the best three betting tips for the match.
The big news to emerge from Molineux this week was the sacking of Walter Zenga. The maverick Italian hadn’t been in charge for long, but the frustrating inconsistencies shown by his side got him the boot and the 1-0 loss to Leeds was the final straw for the owners. There are a number of names being thrown around with everyone from Dougie Freedman to Sam Allardyce via Andre Villas Boas being mentioned. In the meantime, the team have to concentrate on matters in the league as they visit the North West to face Blackburn. Wolves have lost four of the last five league games and will be looking to improve on their league position of 18th. Blackburn are entrenched in a relegation battle and although they showed plenty of positives in their 1-0 defeat to Bristol City, it’s going to be a long hard season for Rovers.
Blackburn vs Wolves Betting Predictions
Blackburn have improved significantly at home recently and have won two of their last four. Their only defeat here recently came against Sheffield Wednesday, a game in which they did find the net late on, but it was ruled offside. They should be able to get something from this encounter and that’s the focus of my first Blackburn vs Wolves prediction.

Both Teams to Score Tips
Wolves should at least make a game of this and find the back of the net. They have been maddeningly inconsistent and tough to predict, but they have enough firepower to find a way past a fragile Blackburn defence so BTTS is my second Blackburn vs Wolves betting tip this weekend.

Blackburn vs Wolves Team News
Marvin Emnes has been reserved for special praise by his manager and is likely to start for Blackburn. Sam Gallagher is likely to partner him up front.
Derrick Williams looks to have picked up an Injury which forced him off against Bristol City and might not be fit enough to start here.
The Wolves line-up could be anything! Without a manager, places will be up for grabs.
Prince Oniangue was dropped to the bench against Leeds and will be hoping to be reinstated here.
Ola John, Ivan Cavaleiro and Connor Coady will all be hoping they did enough in their second half appearances to grab a starting place.
Blackburn vs Wolves Head to Head
These sides played out a goalless draw when they met earlier this year. Prior to that, Wolves had won the three previous meetings. At the very start of last season, Wolves won 2-1 at Ewood Park with goals from Benik Afobe and Dave Edwards.
The last Blackburn victory in this fixture came in 2012 when Rovers won 2-0 at Molineux.
Blackburn vs Wolves Betting Odds
Wolves start as favourite for this fixture and can be backed at around 7/5 with most bookmakers. Blackburn can be backed as big as 2/1 for a home win at Ewood Park. The draw will be popular and is around 23/10.
Nouah Dicko and Joe Mason lead the goalscorer markets, but the latter hasn’t been playing. He could come on in the 2nd half, but it’s safer to side with the former.
