Preview
Newcastle United and Blackburn Rovers meet at St. James' Park, in a match for this stage of the FA Cup (3rd Round). In the last 3 years these teams met twice: the earliest head‑to‑head was played on 02‑01‑2017 and ended in a (1‑0) win by Blackburn Rovers, and the latest on 26‑11‑2016, which ended in a (0‑1) win by Blackburn Rovers. Both teams register significant differences between home and away results, so the home/away factor is worth atention.

Analysis Newcastle

The home team plays its first match in this edition of the FA Cup with the intention of using the home advantage to get a positive result. This is a team that, oddly enough, has had better results in away matches than at home, since in the last 30 matches they register 3 wins, 7 draws and 5 losses in away matches; against 4 wins, 1 draw and 10 losses at their stadium. They come to this match after a home loss against Manchester United by (0‑2). Newcastle United has won 2, tied 1 and lost 7 of the last 10 home matches. Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 8 of the last 10 matches. In 15 matches, they have conceded the first goal 6 times and have never been able to turn the score around.

Newcastle is a team that has already won the Premier League four times throughout its history, with the last title being conquered in the distant 1926/27 season, as well as having six FA Cup titles and one English Super Cup. The team has been making an irregular start to the Premier League in the current season, winning 18 of 63 points so far, being thus at the bottom of the table, near the relegation zone. In four of the last five games that Newcastle played at home, were scored more than 1.5 goals by the teams. We believe that in this match Newcastle will perform another busy game, having quality to score goals.

Analysis Blackburn

The team plays its first match in this edition of the FA Cup with the intention of getting a positive away result. This is a team that usually makes good use of the home advantage, stronger with the help of its supporters, since in the last 30 matches they register 4 wins, 4 draws and 7 losses in away matches, with 22 goals scored and 30 conceded; against 7 wins, 6 draws and 2 losses at their stadium, with 25 goals scored and 16 conceded. In their last match, for the Championship, they got a home win against West Bromwich Albion by (2‑1). In the last 10 away matches Blackburn Rovers has won 2, tied 2 and lost 6. Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded at least one goal in each of the last 10 matches, but their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored goals in 8 of the last 10 matches. In 15 matches, they have conceded the first goal 7 times and have never been able to turn the score around. In the last 16 away matches for all competitions there is 1 period that stands out: they have conceded 12 of their 30 goals between minutes (76'‑90').

Blackburn Rovers is a team that has won the Premier League three times throughout its history, as well as having a Championship title, a FA Cup title and a League Cup title. The team has been making an uneven campaign in the Championship in the current season, having won 34 of the 78 points so far, being thus at the bottom of the table, but still far from the relegation zone. In the last five games that Blackburn Rovers played away from, were scored more than 1.5 goals and in four were scored more than 2.5 goals. We believe that in this match Blackburn Rovers will be able to score goals, even playing away from home, and will perform one more busy game.
