Sky Sports reporter offers score prediction for Blackburn Rovers vs Sunderland

Sunderland head to Blackburn Rovers in the Championship tomorrow night.

Sunderland boss Tony Mowbray goes up against his former club Blackburn Rovers tomorrow night, with Sunderland looking for a fourth win in five.

The Black Cats have moved up into 7th place of the Championship table after a confident 3-1 win at QPR on Saturday, thanks to goals from Jack Clarke, Dan Ballard, and Abdoullah Ba.

Blackburn also won on Saturday, beating Michael Carrick's Middlesbrough 2-1 at Ewood Park to go 8th in the league; behind Sunderland on goal difference.

And offering their score prediction for tomorrow's game, former midfielder and now Sky Sports pundit David Prutton has predicted a 2-2 draw between Blackburn and Sunderland.

A tough outing...

Every game in the Championship is a difficult one. Sunderland's recent results though make for good reading and Blackburn will be very wary of the threat they pose tomorrow night.

And for Mowbray picking up a win at his former club will be very sweet, having lost 2-0 at Ewood Park with the Black Cats last time round.

How Sunderland will cope after a long-haul trip down to London, and then this trip to Lancashire, remains to be seen, but expect Mowbray to utilise his squad depth to keep things fresh.

Tomorrow's game kicks off at 7:45pm.
