You have the option of entering a plea deal on the DUI in court or taking the case to trial. At trial the state must prove (1) you were operating or in actual physical control of a motor vehicle (2) you had consumed alcohol or controlled substances (3) your blood alcohol was over .08 or your normal faculties were impaired.  In your case since there is no field sobriety test and no breath test it will be case of the officers opinion.  There may be a video of you taken at the scene, or at the police station. Sometimes the video is helpful for your case, or harmful. Your lawyer will review all the evidence in the case, including the police report, officers notes, video tapes, etc and then advise you whether you should take a plea deal or go to trial.  Without reviewing all the evidence in your case, it would be impossible for me to tell you what you should do.

What is the likelihood that a field administered breath test and a blood test administered in a clinic will render the same BAC result?

If they're both working correctly they should be different unless you peaked in the middle. Otherwise, one machine is not working properly.

When you are eligible for reinstatement, whether on a restricted or full basis, you will be subjected to the ignition interlock requirement for a minimum of one year.   It is probable that at the time you were sentenced the judge pronounced that the term would be one year, although he or she could have enlarged that term. Also, the device must be installed at your expense.
