Bristol City visit Bloomfield Road on Saturday for a Championship fixture with home side Blackpool. Their latest encounter was a belter of a game, which finished with a 3-1 scoreline. An uncommon result, but we would not mind a similar goal fest this coming Saturday.

Blackpool rank 11 with seven points to their name from five matches, while visitors Bristol City rank seventh in the table on seven points.

Although entering the match as outsiders, Bristol City will be keen on keeping their recent momentum as they have been unbeaten in the Championship for a while. Despite it being a tough assignment at Bloomfield Road, their current form gives them hope to come away with at least a point from the match against Blackpool.

Blackpool go into their next Championship match, averaging a humble 1.4 goals per game in their last ten matches, in which they scored a mundane 14 times, while conceding 15 goals. That amounts to an average of 1.5 per game, where they kept their opponents from scoring three times.

Bristol City scored an average of 1.8 goals a game in the past ten matches. They scored 18 goals, let in ten for an average of one a game, and managed four clean sheets.

Blackpool vs Bristol City Prediction

Blackpool have seen it all in their last three matches, which gave them four points. Against Swansea, they came out empty-handed in a 0-1 defeat, whereafter they avenged themselves in a 0-1 win against Queens P.R.. Their latest match saw them sharing the spoils in a 3-3 draw against Burnley. In their last six Championship home matches, Blackpool have two wins, while they've drawn one and lost three. They scored eight and conceded eight goals.

Blackpool will probably do well to just fend off relegated this coming season and knowing how much every point counts, they should be ready from the outset.

In their last three matches, Bristol City first beat Luton 2-0, then Cardiff by 2-0 and finally Wycombe by 1-3. Bristol City claimed two wins against one draw and three defeats in their last six away matches in the Championship. The scoreline from these matches reads nine goals conceded and eight scored.

Few people saw Bristol City at the fun end of the table this season, but they are displaying a great form right now.

It seems both Bristol City and Blackpool have some issues concerning their defence, as they seem to find themselves on the receiving end a bit too often lately. We believe the trend continues this coming Saturday, and we are rooting for goals.
