👉 Our prediction is: Draw
This matchup between Stoke City and Blackburn Rovers has all the makings of a hard-fought stalemate, so our top tip for the match is to bet on the draw on the 1X2 market.
Neither side is particularly appealing to bet on to win given their uneven form of late. And we also see great value in the 3.33 odds for a draw, which is hard to pass up.
👉 Prediction: Under 2.5 Goals
