Stoke vs Blackburn comment: Extending the series of happy days

Blackburn has found true form after a series of days of dreamlike competition. In the last 4 rounds, the team nicknamed "rose" has all triumphed, in turn against Swansea, Blackpool, QPR and Sheffield United. In between, Blackburn also knocked out Leicester City 3-1 to put his name in the quarterfinals of the FA Cup.

With 12/12 maximum points in the last 4 rounds, Blackburn has climbed to 4th place in the rankings. They are 4 points ahead of the 7th team Millwall and 6 points behind the second team Sheffield United. In the context that this is only round 36, Blackburn still hopes to compete for one of the top 2 places to win tickets to direct promotion.

This week, Blackburn will compete against Stoke, a team that has been in the Premier League for many years. At this time, Stoke does not have many goals and motivation to play. Alex Neil's teachers and students are 12 points behind the sixth team, Norwich City, so there is almost no hope of promotion.

In the opposite direction, they are not too worried about relegation when 11 points higher than the group holding the red light. If Blackburn won all of the last 4 rounds, Stoke won 2 and lost 2 in the last 4 rounds. At home, Stoke only won 5 out of 17 visits from the beginning of the tournament, the rest drew 4, lost 8.

Asian ratio (0:1/2): Blackburn is a red address on the trading floor, as shown by winning the last 7 consecutive matches, including 2 matches with 0:1/2 handicap. Meanwhile, Stoke only won 1 of the last 4 matches.
