Peterborough take on the visitors Blackburn in the round 42 match of English Championship. The match will be played on Friday, April 15th at Weston Homes Stadium (Peterborough).
Officially, Peterborough United has not yet left the Championship, but there is hardly any doubt about this happening. The hosts did not have a quality composition capable of gaining a foothold in the championship. There were only some good matches. But there were practically no victories. There is only one motivation - not to take the last place and compete in absentia with Derby County and Barnsley. In the last four rounds, Makkan's team lost only once, but they should have won. With such a bad defense, it was impossible to do this a priori.

The visitors lose very important points in matches with teams that do not have tournament motivation and do not claim anything. For the last seven rounds, only one victory was recorded, and even then, over Derby County. Weak implementation of own changes, disgusting results on the road in 2022. However, Blackburn are only two points away from sixth position, not thanks to the current football, but to a good supply of points scored in the fall and Mowbray does not have a very difficult schedule in the remaining rounds. Another thing, the Rovers are so inconsistent that they are able to give away points to any middle peasant in the Championship.
The danger is that Blackburn will lose points present. But if you do not beat Peterborough even on the road, then you cannot hope to get into the playoffs. The Rovers score one and a half times more goals, concede half as much. At some point in the meeting, this should have an effect. At home, the hosts alternate between draws and defeats. For odds closer to two, it's worth trying Mowbray's victory.
Prediction for the match: Blackburn Rovers to win.
