Blackburn’s title odds shorten once again following dramatic victory
Steve Kean’s side are now priced at just 5/1 to lift the Championship trophy as they stretch their unbeaten league run to five games.
Following their 3-3 draw with Leeds United last time out, Blackburn Rovers were once again involved in a goal fest this weekend, coming out on top in an eight-goal thriller at Bristol City, a result that keeps them way ahead in the Championship title winning market, whilst wins for Bolton Wanderers, Cardiff City and Brighton and Hove Albion keeps those clubs at the top of the outright betting.
