- Prediction
Blackburn produced the perfect response to a 2-0 defeat to Blackburn when they faced Watford in gameweek five, sealing all three points on their trip to Vicarage Road thanks to Ryoya Morishita's 47th-minute goal. However, Rovers are still without a point on home soil this season and face a daunting challenge against a recently relegated side on Saturday.
Jaden Philogene bagged a hat-trick against Championship basement boys Sheffield United last weekend as Ipswich romped to a 5-0 win against the free-falling Blades. That result was the visitors' first win of the season, ending a four-match winless streak to start the campaign.
