Blackburn vs Oxford Odds

The odds are updated on a frequent basis. You might therefore find that they are different to the ones listed for the above betting predictions.

Blackburn Betting Favourites to Win

The bookies have Blackburn Rovers as -137 favourites for this Championship clash, with the Full-Time Result betting odds implying that they are 58% likely to win. Oxford United are the +390 underdogs, while the draw can also be backed as an alternative.

Backing Blackburn -0.75 at -108 on the Asian Handicap line means they need to win by two goals or more against Oxford for a full payout. A one-goal success would see you get paid out on the -0.5 part and money back on the -1.0 part.

The Under 2.5 / Over 2.5 Goals betting market has the two outcomes at a similar price. A different approach is a Both Teams to Score bet and Yes has been priced at -127.

The best football betting sites cover Championship games in serious depth and there are hundreds of markets. We recommend scanning through the various bets before picking out the best angle.
