Blackburn Rovers vs Newcastle Predictions

• Blackburn have scored and conceded in nine home matches on the bounce
• At least four goals have been scored in each of Newcastle’s last five games
• The last time these two sides met at Ewood Park, six goals were scored

Goals on the agenda at Ewood Park

There tends to be plenty of entertainment when Blackburn and Newcastle are involved in matches and there is scope for at least four goals to be scored when the two teams lock horns at Ewood Park.

Rovers have both scored and conceded in each of their last nine home fixtures, a run that includes a 5-2 win over Cambridge and a 4-1 success against Wrexham during this cup run.

Meanwhile, each of Newcastle’s last five games have featured at least four goals, while the Magpies have scored in 10 consecutive matches, but have kept just two clean-sheets over the same period.

Premier League quality should tell

Blackburn have only won once in six matches since booking their spot in the FA Cup fifth round and in a high-scoring game, Newcastle’s Premier League quality should ultimately tell.

Eddie Howe’s side have scored exactly three goals in three of their last five road games, a sequence that includes a 3-1 success at Aston Villa at the end of January.

That scoreline could be replicated on Tuesday, especially as the Magpies won by two goals on their last visit to Blackburn, a 4-2 triumph which also came in the FA Cup in January 2019.
