Blackburn Rovers vs Brentford Prediction

Looking at Blackburn Rovers vs Brentford Prediction, Blackburn manager Tony Mowbray may hand Stewart Downing a start against Brentford after the midfielder came off the bench to score against Barnsley.
Downing could get the nod ahead of Sam Gallagher, but Joe Rothwell faces a check after picking up a knock.
Brentford midfielder Christian Norgaard returns from suspension, but centre-back Julian Jeanvier is still banned.
Manager Thomas Frank could well name the same starting line-up which beat Reading at home on Saturday.
