Leicester v Blackburn Tip
The Foxes are winless in four, Rovers have lost one in eight but the odds don't reflect any of this.
The Championship throws up a great chance to back a form horse at long odds on Tuesday night as Blackburn travel to Leicester as 9/2 shots with Bet365.
On the face of it you can see why the Foxes are nothing longer than 8/11 (Coral) to collect three points as they have won 11 times at the King Power Stadium in 2012-13; Rovers have tasted victory just three times on the road.
However, momentum is going massively with the visitors who have stormed up to the fringes of play-off contention under Michael Appleton. Blackburn have only lost one of their last eight in all competitions (W4 D3 L1) and they knocked Arsenal out of the FA Cup at the Emirates only 10 days ago.
In contrast, Leicester have seen their automatic promotion hopes fade quite dramatically after a winless February up till now. Nigel Pearson will have been alarmed particularly by the quality of teams they have lost to recently. Peterborough, Huddersfield and Charlton all took the spoils - the latter two at the King Power.
Rovers are better than all those sides, so the odds on the away win must surely be too lengthy.
