Blackburn Rovers, Recent FormBlackburn Rovers had to make do with a share of the points in their last match, with a 1-1 draw against Huddersfield Town. They came away from that fixture with 67% of the possession and clocked up 16 attempts on goal with 4 on target. By comparison, Huddersfield Town managed 8 attempts on goal, with 3 on target.
They have found the net 7 times in their last 6 matches, but it hasn't earned them much points-wise due to a leaky defence that's shipped 15 goals in that same period. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 games, but they have failed to keep a clean sheet in their last 11 games.
They've drawn their last 2 league games at Ewood Park, but their search for a home win in the league extends even further having gone 3 consecutive games without grabbing all 3 points.
On an individual basis, Sammie Szmodics will be looking to get on the scoresheet again having scored 16 goals in Blackburn Rovers' 28 league games this season.
Queens Park Rangers, Recent FormIt's fair to say Queens Park Rangers will have been relatively pleased with a point from their last encounter with Huddersfield Town, a match that ended in a 1-1 draw. Their share of possession in that meeting was 52%, while racking up 7 shots along the way, 4 of which were on target. Huddersfield Town had 13 shots on goal with 3 on target.
They may consider themselves adept at breaking through their opponent's defences, having scored 5 goals in their last 6 outings, but they have had their own defensive frailties to worry about, having conceded 7 and seen valuable points lost. They have failed to score in 7 of their 14 away games.
Having drawn 2 of their last 6 games they have at least put some points on the table, but they will not be overly happy with only 1 win.
Queens Park Rangers will be looking to forget their last league encounter with Blackburn Rovers, when a slew of goals ended in a heavy 0-4 defeat.
Blackburn have managed to keep a clean sheet against The R's in each of their previous 2 meetings at Ewood Park. The R's defence has struggled at Ewood Park, having conceded 1 or more goals in each of their last 9 visits. In their past 5 meetings, The Riversiders' defence has been pretty stingy, only conceding 2 goals, so QPR will have to take their chances when they come.
QPR will be hoping to get at least a point from this game having lost the last 6 times they've visited Blackburn in the league and not won this away fixture at Ewood Park for 10 games in a row.
Blackburn manager Jon Dahl Tomasson has some team selection issues to consider ahead of this match. John Buckley (Shoulder), Hayden Carter (Hamstring), Ryan Hedges (Hamstring) and Harry Pickering (Hamstring) are all currently out of contention for this game.
There is only really one injury concern for the QPR manager Martí Cifuentes ahead of this clash, with Rayan Kolli (Leg) missing out, which gives Cifuentes a strong squad to pick his starting eleven from.
