I reckon that is a good enough bet in lieu of a lottery ticket i.e. £2. Not going down the bookies. Still recovering after an injury getting of the train after the Leeds game.


Albion away (last)

Shots 13 - 10.7
Shots on target 3.1

Goals 5-8 (6 scored from open play, one penalty)

Albion first

WDL 4-4-1

Away goals conceded.

Long range header from a free kick: Lascelles (Newcastle)
Direct free kick: Shelvey (Newcastle)

Scrambled last minute goal as consolation from open play down Albion's left: Hooper (Wednesday)

Long range inswinger cross free kick: Swift (Reading)
Shot in penalty area after open play down Albion's left: McShane (Reading)

https://www.whoscored.com/Matches/1085032/Preview predicts 1-1

Backburn WDL 3-4-3 mixed results at home, but automatic contenders ought to win at Ewell Park

NB, Stats:

If Blackburn score a goal it is a 55% chance based on past results of teams vs Brighton in the Championship this season on their own turf. 22% first half and 33% second half.
Two goals and it is 22% chance
A goal from open play is 22% chance
A draw or defeat is 44% chance
A win is 11%

For the whole of 2016, Albion have lost 10.5% of games away.
74% record of conceding a goal.
But only a 79% record of scoring a goal.

Blackburn have all the chance of upsetting the form book. Albion really need to score more away from home

Ewell Park ? If I'd have known I could have made this one.

I said Hemed and Skalak would be in for Murray and Murphy. I also said 2-1 Brighton. Here's hoping.

I might have thought of starting Murray, Hemed and Baldock, and then thought better of it.
