Blackburn Rovers vs Newcastle United Prediction: FA Cup Match on 27.02.2024

There is midweek action in the FA Cup to look ahead to this week, as the battles for a spot in the quarterfinals will be taking place across the country. One of the most interesting ties will take place at Ewood Park, as Blackburn Rovers bid to upset the odds when they host Newcastle United.

 

FA Cup Preview

An FA Cup upset could be on the cards at Ewood Park this week, as Blackburn Rovers bid to defy their odds and reach the quarterfinal stage of the competition. The hosts will be the massive outsiders in the betting. They have endured a miserable campaign to this point, as they currently sit 16th in the second tier. Rovers also come into this match without a win in their last four. 

The FA Cup presents Newcastle with their only opportunity of silverware this term, but they have allowed their standards to slip throughout the 2023-24 season. Newcastle come into this midweek match after a really underwhelming performance in the Premier League over the weekend after losing 4-1 on the road against Arsenal.

Rovers reached the last eight stage of the FA Cup last term, and they will be looking to reach the quarterfinals in successive seasons for the first time since the 1920s. In the previous round, they cruised to a straightforward 4-1 home success against League Two Wrexham. 

Newcastle boast a solid record at this stage of the competition after progressing from each of their last eight ties in the fifth round. They previously reached the quarterfinal stage in 2019-20 after beating West Brom in the fifth round. The Magpies were comfortable 2-0 winners in the previous round of the competition against Fulham. 

Blackburn Rovers vs Newcastle Head to Head

Blackburn have suffered defeats in seven of their last nine FA Cup ties against the Magpies, which includes defeats in each of the last five. Their most recent defeat in the competition was suffered in 2018-19. Meanwhile, Newcastle have recorded victories in their last two matches against Rovers across all competitions. 

Blackburn Rovers vs Newcastle Prediction

Blackburn’s league form has been weak throughout the season, and they are likely to struggle against Newcastle this week. Therefore, the most straightforward angle appears to be with the visitors, who have a fine record in the fifth round of the competition.
