Betting Sites Expecting Tight Affair

With a 53% prospect of triumphing according to the 1x2 odds, Swansea City are favourites to come out on top in this Championship clash and they’re available at -111 with the bookmakers. For those wanting to back Blackburn Rovers, you will find +320 about this outsider.

Swansea are -114 on the Asian Handicap -0.5 which is the same as a victory on the Full-Time Result. The alternative is to oppose the favourites and get the draw onside by going for Blackburn +0.5 at -114 instead.
