Prediction Stoke City vs Blackburn directly from the Molineux Stadium on January 2, 2012.
Blackburn Rovers successfully make Manchester United (MU) had a nightmare in front of spectators at Old Trafford last day of 2011, Saturday (31/12) yesterday. Steve Kean forces managed to bring home three points from the Red Devil cage which makes them temporarily moved up two places to 18th Premier League.
This victory certainly catapulted Blackburn motivation to get out of the relegation zone in the second half of the competition when the opportunity to entertain his guests Stoke City at Ewood Park on Monday (2 / 1) night.
While the different results obtained guests Stoke City who had to settle for playing against Wigan Athletic 2-2 after Ben Watson's penalty leveled in the 87th minute. Awarded a penalty after substitute Stoke, Ryan Shotton, dropping Hugo Rodallega. Decision of the referee gave a penalty to Wigan obviously disappointing for the Stoke.
For that to cure the disappointment of supporters, trainers Stoke, Tony Pulis, is targeting victory over host who was madly in euphoria that. For Pulis complacency quickly ambushed when suddenly a successful club, would be a hole that will be exploited, and Stoke are ready to do so.
Stoke will still be more likely utilize their right-wing attacks through a more solid course. On the front lines of The Potters still going to entrust Peter Crouch and Wilson Palacios.
Obviously, with this Blackburn rearguard led by Christopher Samba should be more concentration in order not to be used by the attackers Stoke it. Because so far Crouch advantage of a clever opponent.
While to withstand attack by Aiyegbeni and Mauro Formica is brilliant when Manchester United beat Stoke defender has set up its flagship, Jonathan Woodgate and Ryan Shotton on guard to protect Sorensen from the onslaught of deadly duo's Blackburn Rovers.
What is clear Stoke City certainly would not want to lose just like that, especially considering they have so far dominated the meeting in the history of Blackburn Rovers, which Stoke won 5 times in the last six meetings with Blackburn, remaining a draw.
From the condition of the current strength of the team too, the ambition of three points is a natural thing for Stoke achieved. It's just that vigilance remains must be the extra attention if you do not want to suffer the same fate as Manchester United.
