It’s been a mixed run of form for the hosts over their last five league games, winning two, drawing two and losing one. They will hope to make a statement about their aspirations with a big win here over a Blackburn side three places above them in the Championship table.
The visitors come into this game well in the mix for the playoffs, despite losing three of their last four league games. John Eustace will hope his team can arrest the slide this weekend before they start to slip down the table and away from the top six.
Young Bristol City forward Fally Mayulu has reportedly attracted interest from other clubs. He arrived from Rapid Vienna last summer and has made 15 league appearances for the Robins since.
Meanwhile, controversial long-time Blackburn owners Venky’s are being urged by fans and ex-players like David Dunn to invest further in the playing squad before the end of the transfer window to help their bid for promotion.
