Blackburn Rovers will be looking to make it back-to-back wins in all competitions for the third time this season when they face Nottingham Forest in the last 16 of the EFL Cup on Wednesday night. The hosts edged out West Ham United on penalties in the third round, while the visitors produced an impressive performance that was rewarded with a 2-0 win over Tottenham Hotspur.

After beating Ajax and Hearts 6-0 in mid-season friendlies, Blackburn Rovers were widely criticised for their disappointing return to league action, as they lost 4-1 to Preston. However, they produced a positive response last weekend with a 2-0 win over fifth-placed Norwich City, which must have put them in good spirits ahead of their home game on Wednesday.

Meanwhile, Nottingham Forest started the season rather disappointingly but went into the World Cup break with some momentum after wins against Tottenham Hotspur and Crystal Palace. Although they won those matches without conceding a goal, they currently have the worst defence in the Premier League, which makes it unlikely that they will leave Wednesday's match without conceding a goal.

Blackburn Rovers vs Nottingham Forest Betting Tips: BTTS
Blackburn Rovers have not shown much weakness in recent games at Ewood Park, winning six of their last seven competitive matches, which is something they can rely on.

However, Nottingham Forest have performed better in recent meetings between these two sides, winning four and losing one of their last five encounters and they will fancy their chances of progressing to the next stage of the competition.

In our opinion, both teams are likely to score, as has been the case in most of the hosts' games in this competition.

Best Tip: BTTS
Blackburn Rovers vs Nottingham Forest prediction: 1-1



译文(自动翻译仅供参考):

布莱克本流浪者将在周三晚上迎战诺丁汉森林，他们将在本赛季第三次在各项赛事中取得背靠背的胜利。东道主在第三轮点球大战中淘汰了西汉姆联，而客队在2-0战胜托特纳姆热刺的比赛中表现出色。

在赛季中期的友谊赛中6-0击败阿贾克斯和哈茨之后，布莱克本流浪者因在联赛中令人失望的回归而受到广泛批评，他们4-1输给了普雷斯顿。然而，他们在上周末以2-0战胜排名第五的诺维奇城队做出了积极的回应，这肯定让他们在周三的主场比赛前精神焕发。

与此同时，诺丁汉森林在本赛季的开局相当令人失望，但在击败托特纳姆热刺和水晶宫后，他们在世界杯间歇期取得了一些势头。尽管他们赢得了这些比赛，没有失球，但他们目前的防守是英超最差的，这使得他们不太可能在周三的比赛中不失球。

布莱克本流浪者对诺丁汉森林投注提示:BTTS
布莱克本流浪者最近在埃伍德公园的比赛中没有表现出太多的弱点，他们在过去的7场比赛中赢了6场，这是他们可以依靠的。

然而，诺丁汉森林在最近两支球队的交锋中表现得更好，他们在最近的5次交锋中4胜1负，他们很有可能晋级下一阶段的比赛。

在我们看来，两队都有可能进球，就像东道主在本次比赛中的大多数比赛一样。
