Blackburn Rovers, Recent FormHaving taken all 3 points, with a crucial 3-1 away win over Norwich City in their last league game, Blackburn Rovers will undoubtedly be very satisfied with their work. They achieved 44% possession in that match and had 10 strikes at goal, with 4 hitting the target, up against Norwich City's tally of 21 efforts at goal, 8 of which were on target.
Manager Jon Dahl Tomasson will be reasonably pleased with his team's performances in front of goal, having scored 10 goals in their last 6 games, but will want to tighten up his defence with 4 goals conceded in the same period. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 home games but have only managed to keep 1 clean sheet in those games.
They're experiencing a very poor spell of form at Ewood Park, having lost 4 of their last 6 home games.
On an individual basis, Sammie Szmodics will be looking to get on the scoresheet again having scored 9 goals in Blackburn Rovers' 15 league games this season.
Preston North End, Recent FormPreston North End enter this game with a comfortable 3-2 home win over Coventry City last time out in the league. Their share of possession in that meeting was 44%, while racking up 16 shots along the way, 7 of which were on target. Coventry City had 19 shots on goal with 8 on target.
Having lost 13 goals in their past 6 matches, boss Ryan Lowe will surely be casting a critical eye over his defensive line, even though his team managed to pick up some points along the way due to the 8 goals they scored. They have scored in 4 of their last 6 away games, but they have failed to record a clean sheet in their last 10 games overall.
They're experiencing a bit of an unwelcome spell of form away from home, having lost 3 of their last 6 on the road and picking up only 2 wins.
Will Keane will be hoping to create problems for Blackburn Rovers in this one, having scored 3 goals in his last 6 outings on the road for Preston North End.
Last time they met both teams got on the scoresheet, but the match ended in a 1-1 draw.
Blackburn will be confident of finding the net in this one against The Lilywhites, with an impressive scoring record of at least 1 goal in their previous 8 encounters between the two sides. The Riversiders have struggled to keep Preston at bay when these two teams have met at Ewood Park, during the last 3 times they have hosted Preston in the league, they have conceded a total of 6 goals.
Preston player Ched Evans will be looking to cause Blackburn some problems having scored 2 goals in the last 3 league meetings between the teams at Ewood Park.
