Brit Predictor's model rates Blackburn to win as the most likely result (49%). It gives Blackburn 49% at home, a draw 29% and Cardiff 22%, so its call is 1: Blackburn to win. The bookmakers, with their margin removed, have it 36% / 26% / 38%, a call of 12 — a clear disagreement with the model. Expected goals are 1.4 for Blackburn and 0.9 for Cardiff; the single most likely score is 1-1. Careful: there is little recent data on Cardiff, usually a promoted side, and the market tends to be right about those.
