Blackburn of course should win but had the Premier League side still been locked in the sort of downward spiral that characterised Paul Ince's final days as manager, an upset might almost have seemed possible. It now appears that Rovers have stabilised under Sam Allardyce, who, after his unhappy time at St James', is sure to draw derision form the local support. Obviously Blackburn are long odds on to win, but the 7/1 odds with Stan James about the draw in this match is worth a serious look.
