Match Prediction- Spezia vs Fiorentina Betting Tips and Match Prediction
While they still sit in the third position in the table, Rovers will be deemed as a threat to the top two, but Tony Mowbray will have concerns about the recent progression of his team. Although eight points have been collected from seven games in 2022, Rovers have lost their last two matches and failed to net in their last three.
At a time when they have played more fixtures than many of their promotion rivals, it is a worrying trend, and the North-West outfit realistically requires all three points at The Hawthorns to keep the pressure on Fulham and Bournemnouth. Nevertheless, they may be placing more attention on simply remaining in the playoffs, and ninth-placed West Brom only sits eight points adrift of Blackburn while also possessing a match in hand.

While Steve Bruce would have had high hopes of getting his West Brom to reign off to a winning start, the size of his job became apparent to him as the Baggies went down 2-0 at Sheffield United. West Brom was not helped by the sending off of Jake Livermore, but the end result was a third successive 2-0 defeat, extending a run of just one win from nine matches in all competitions.
The schedule gets no easier for Bruce and his squad with another three promotion rivals to come in succession, but there is an argument that West Brom will only remain in the playoff picture if they can collect points in such games. Bruce must find a solution to his team’s lack of goals during the first half of matches, the West Midlands outfit last netting in the opening 45 minutes all the way back on December 4.

All things considered, both clubs can ill-afford another game without success if they want to last the pace in their respective battles. However, confidence is diminishing in the two camps, and a hard-fought draw is the most likely outcome.
Looking at past results between the sides, this should be a cagey and closely-contested affair at the Hawthorns. We expect both sides to cancel out each other’s efforts and force a share of the spoils as they look to arrest their respective slumps in form.
West Bromwich Albion 2-0 Blackburn Rovers, as predicted by us.
