United were 17-10 for their fixture at the Cardiff City Stadium in their first game back after lockdown and despite falling to a 2-0 defeat in South Wales, Marcelo Bielsa's Whites are no bigger than 4-6 to win at Ewood Park today (kick-off 3pm).

Tenth-placed Rovers have lost their last two games 2-0 and Tony Mowbray's side can be backed at 19-4 to bounce back with a victory against the Championship leaders while the draw is a best-priced 3s.

Patrick Bamford is once again favourite to score first at 15-4 and 5-4 any time followed by Tyler Roberts who is 13-2 to score first and 9-4 any time with Pablo Hernandez 7s to notch first and 11-4 any time.

Danny Graham is rated the most potent Blackburn threat but still 10-1 to score first and 9-2 any time.

Sam Gallagher is next from a Rovers perspective at 11-1 to net first and also 9-2 any time followed by Dominic Samuel and Adam Armstrong who are both 12s to score first and 5s any time with Jack Vale 14s and 11-2.

But Leeds are expected to get it right in Lancashire and the Whites also remain very long-odds on to complete automatic promotion and no bigger than 1-9 for a top-two finish though those odds have been halved since Tuesday night's 1-1 draw at home to Luton Town.

West Brom, meanwhile, are 1-5 for automatic promotion with Brentford suddenly no bigger than 13-5 after winning all three games post-lockdown.

Despite being just two points behind the Bees, the top two chances of Fulham (33s) and Nottingham Forest (66s) have basically been written off.

It is, though, the Whites and Baggies are expected to finish first and second and priced accordingly though there will likely be a big market shift come Saturday tea-time with the Bees in action the same time as Leeds at home to Wigan Athletic.
