Sunderland vs Blackburn Prediction & Match Preview

• Sunderland snapped their seven-game winless thread with a win at Cardiff City on Friday.
• Blackburn go into this off the back of seven defeats and three draws in the last ten away games in the league.
• Jobe Bellingham scored in two of his team’s last three appearances in the Championship.

Sunderland have finally produced a strong offensive showing. They fired six attempts on target and notched two goals in the first half of the away game against Cardiff City on Friday afternoon. Adil Aouchiche starred with a goal and an assist while Jobe Bellingham added his name to the scoresheet as well on Welsh soil.

The win in Wales snapped Sunderland’s dreadful series of results. Sunderland had earlier claimed just one point from the previous seven Championship affairs. The Black Cats will have a nice opportunity to back up Friday’s result just three days later. They play host to out-of-form Blackburn Rovers on Monday afternoon at Stadium of Light.

Blackburn entered their match against Ipswich Town on Friday winless in nine straight games across competitions. The Riversiders made a managerial change in mid-February but the appointment of John Eustace has done little to shift their fortunes around since.

Sunderland vs Blackburn Head-to-head

Sunderland have dominated this matchup in the history of games at Stadium of Light. The Black Cats won 32, drew 8, and lost just 7 of the previous 47 home matches against Blackburn.

Sunderland will also come into this on the back of two straight wins over the Riversiders. The run includes a 3-1 victory in September last year at Ewood Park.

We’ve seen three or more goals in four of the previous six head-to-head matches.

Sunderland vs Blackburn Prediction

Sunderland are flying high after a fantastic first-half performance away at Cardiff City three days ago. The Black Cats have a nice opportunity to back it up in the clash with Blackburn. The visitors are winless in nine subsequent outings across competitions. They have particularly struggled to get results on travels. Blackburn lost seven and drew three of the previous ten away matches in the league. The Riversiders also entered the previous round’s clash with Ipswich Town while being just three points above the red zone in the Championship standings. Lastly, Sunderland have dominated this matchup in the history of the clashes at Stadium of Light. We have enough reasons to go for the home win pick at the 2.10 odds.

Alternatively, we will chase the value of the 3.75 odds offered for Jobe Bellingham to score anytime on Monday. Bellingham was on target in the win at Cardiff City on Friday afternoon. He has scored in two of his previous three appearances for the Black Cats. Jobe will have a lot of space to deliver past Blackburn’s defence on Monday. The odds are too good to be ignored.
