We said: Blackburn Rovers 3-0 Walsall
Blackburn opened their Championship campaign with a win on Saturday, and they will be very confident of recording an even bigger victory against Walsall on Tuesday night. The Saddlers continued their poor away form from the 2022-23 season with a loss at Morecambe last time out, and we believe that Rovers' attacking powers will be too strong for the fourth-tier visitors at Ewood Park.
