This is a Premier League 2 fixture between Leicester City U21 and Blackburn Rovers U21, with both sides looking to build momentum. CheckLive's model does not select a favourite, and no win probability is given, which points to a genuinely open contest.
Leicester have won three of their last five, beating Plymouth Argyle U21 3-1, Leeds United U21 3-2 and Arsenal U21 5-1, while losing to Tottenham U21 0-1 and Aston Villa U21 2-3. Blackburn have lost four of their last five, including a 0-4 defeat at Southampton U21 and friendly losses to Avro and Guiseley, with a 5-2 win over Preston North End U21 and a 1-1 draw with Marine AFC.
The head-to-head is tight over eight meetings, with Leicester winning two, Blackburn winning four and two draws. The most recent meeting, in this same competition, finished 3-3, so another draw would not be a surprise. With both teams' form patchy and no favourite from the data, the key thing is which side handles the key moments better.
