1st Prediction For Leicester City vs Blackburn Rovers: Match Result – Leicester City – 8/11
Leicester will be glad to return to the East Midlands this weekend after successive losses on the road, which have seen the Foxes drop out of the top six places in the Championship. They remain unbeaten on home soil, though their last three results at the King Power Stadium have all been stalemates. That leaves Martí Cifuentes’ side winless in 2 months since defeating Birmingham City at the end of August, following their opening weekend victory over Sheffield Wednesday.
Blackburn Rovers ended their long wait for a victory against Southampton on Saturday, coming from behind to defeat the recently-relegated Premier League side. That was their first victory since returning from the September international break away at Watford. That victory against the Hornets was their second in a row away from home, but Rovers have since lost successive games away from East Lancashire.
Expect Rovers to continue their patchy away record, while Leicester should remain unbeaten on home soil with three points this weekend.
2nd Prediction For Leicester City vs Blackburn Rovers: Under 2.5 Goals – 4/5
Leicester have scored 6 times in 5 Championship home encounters this term. Both wins have seen them find the back of the net twice, but, having scored 4 times in their last 5, they have managed just 2 goals in 3 matches since. However, the Foxes have the joint-best defensive record on their own patch, conceding just 3 times and keeping 2 clean sheets.
Blackburn are among the lowest scorers on the road in the second tier this season, finding the net just 4 times in 5 away games. But, Rovers have shipped only 6 goals, one of the better records in the division so far this term. With neither side being particularly prolific infront of goal, a low-scoring contest is anticipated.
3rd Prediction For Leicester City vs Blackburn Rovers: Both Teams To Score – No – 5/6
Leicester failed to score for the first time since drawing with rivals Coventry City last Saturday against Millwall. That draw against the league leaders is the only time they haven’t scored at home this term, and at any venue in the 25/26 season across all competitions. But, that was 1 of only 3 clean sheets that Cifuentes’ side have kept this year.
Blackburn failed to find the net twice in the opening month of the season, and while that form has improved, they are scoreless in their last 2 on the road. In fact, none of their five games away from Ewood Park have seen both teams find the net this season. And that run should continue this weekend, with Rovers the likely outfit to fail in finding a breakthrough.

Full Preview Of The Game: Last Results And Head-To-Head:
Leicester City had started the better of the 3 relegated sides, but have stuttered in form since returning from the latest international break. Defeated by two surprise candidates in the early promotion race last week, Millwall and Hull City, the Foxes have dropped to 10th in the Championship standings. Draws have held them back thus far, with every game in September ending level.
A 3-1 victory at Swansea City was a rare high at the start of the month, but it has been a frustrating return to action after a 2-week break, drawing against Portsmouth before those losses. The Foxes have their work cut out next Tuesday evening against high-flying Middlesbrough. Before the final international break of 2025, Leicester travel to face under-pressure Norwich City.
Speaking of under pressure, Valérien Ismaël’s job was hanging in the balance ahead of their game against Southampton last weekend. But second-half goals from Andri Gudjohnsen and Ryan Alebiosu ended their wait for a home win. Successive losses to Sheffield United and Coventry City had followed a draw against Stoke City earlier in October.
That result leaves Rovers in 21st place, just a point outside the bottom 3 places, though they do have a game in hand on everyone around them in the table. A long midweek trip to Bristol City is next up for the East Lancashire outfit, before hosting former manager John Eustace, who brings his Derby County side to Ewood Park next Saturday.
These two former Premier League champions last met in May 2024, when a 2-0 win for Blackburn kept them in the Championship on the final day against the Championship champions.
