Blackburn Rovers- Sam Morsy
Swansea City vs Blackburn Rovers predictions and betting tips preview a 3pm Saturday clash at the Swansea.com Stadium, where second-placed Swansea look to end a mini-slump against a Blackburn side chasing the top half.
On Saturday 31 October, Swansea aim to shake off back-to-back defeats and lean on the home record that has carried them up the Championship table. Anthony Eadson picks through the markets below.
Premium Tips
Anthony Eadson has settled on two Premium Tips for this one in south Wales, with the best prices taken from our featured bookmakers.
| Premium Tip | Odds | Why we’re backing it |
|---|---|---|
| Swansea to win to nil | 2/1 (bet365) | Swansea have been miserly at home, conceding just three goals in six at the Swansea.com Stadium and keeping five clean sheets across the campaign. Blackburn have won only once in six away games and can go missing on their travels, so the platform is there for a tight home win. With Swansea so hard to break down in SA1 and fancied to edge a low-scoring game, a win to nil at 2/1 makes plenty of sense given their defensive record and Blackburn’s modest output on the road. |
| Todd Cantwell to be carded | 10/3 (Ladbrokes) | Todd Cantwell is Blackburn’s most combustible creative player, the type to pick up a booking when a game turns scrappy and he drifts into niggly duels in midfield. A tight, low-scoring contest against a well-organised Swansea side is exactly the sort of frustrating afternoon that tends to earn him a yellow card. At 10/3 with Ladbroked, Cantwell to be carded is a tidy price for a player with genuine previous in the bookings column this season, and this looks the sort of niggly contest that brings those tendencies out. |

How Swansea City go into the game
Swansea City sit second on 23 points, a fine start even if their recent form has dipped. The Swans have lost their last two, most heavily a 5-0 beating at QPR, after reeling off four straight wins before that.
At the Swansea.com Stadium, though, they have been hard to beat, losing once in six home games and conceding just three goals there. They have kept five clean sheets in all this season, so even out of sorts they offer real defensive solidity in front of their own fans.
How Blackburn Rovers go into the game
Blackburn Rovers travel to south Wales sitting 10th on 18 points, in decent nick after a 2-0 home win over Wrexham last time out. Rovers have won three of their last five, mixing strong home form with a patchier record elsewhere.
Away from Ewood Park, however, Blackburn have managed only one win in six, drawing three and losing two, and have conceded nine on their travels. That is the obvious concern against a Swansea side who rarely leak goals on home turf.
Swansea City vs Blackburn Rovers head-to-head
| Date | Home | Score | Away |
|---|---|---|---|
| 20/01/26 | Swansea City | 3-1 | Blackburn Rovers |
| 30/09/25 | Blackburn Rovers | 1-2 | Swansea City |
| 22/02/25 | Swansea City | 3-0 | Blackburn Rovers |
| 19/10/24 | Blackburn Rovers | 1-0 | Swansea City |
| 02/03/24 | Swansea City | 2-1 | Blackburn Rovers |
Recent history favours the hosts here, with Swansea winning four of the last five league meetings, including a 3-1 at home back in January. Blackburn’s lone win in that run came at Ewood Park in October 2024.
Swansea City vs Blackburn Rovers predictions & betting tips
| Our Prediction | Odds & Bookmaker | Confidence | Why We’re Backing It |
|---|---|---|---|
| Swansea City | 8/11 (William Hill) | ⭐⭐⭐ | Swansea have won four of the last five league meetings with Blackburn, who have claimed just one away win all term. |
| Both teams to score – No | 20/21 (William Hill) | ⭐⭐⭐ | Swansea have kept five clean sheets, the most in the division, and four of their six home games have seen at least one side fail to score. |
| Under 2.5 goals | 10/11 (bet365) | ⭐⭐⭐⭐ | Swansea’s home games have produced few goals, with just 10 scored and conceded across their six matches in SA1. |
| Swansea City 1-0 | 6/1 (bet365) | ⭐⭐ | Blackburn have won once in six away and could struggle to break down a Swansea side that has conceded just three at home. |
Swansea City vs Blackburn Rovers score prediction
This has the look of a cagey, low-scoring game. The hosts are miserly in front of their own fans and the visitors have been inconsistent on the road, so a narrow home win with few goals makes sense. Score prediction: Swansea City 1-0 Blackburn Rovers.
