Blackburn Rovers, Recent FormIn their last league encounter, Blackburn Rovers racked up a stunning 5-1 away win against Sunderland. During that encounter they had 45% possession and had 13 attempts on goal with 7 on target, while their opponents hit 7 of their 13 shots on goal.
It's fair to say that manager John Eustace will be pretty happy with his squad's ability to find the net of late, having scored 8 goals in their last 6 matches. That said, he will also be aware there is still work to do at the back, where they have shipped 6 goals in those same matches as well as some valuable points. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 home games, but they've conceded a goal in each of their the last 14 games at Ewood Park.
Having drawn 3 of their last 6 home games they have at least put some points on the board, but they will not be overly happy with only 1 win.
On an individual basis, Sammie Szmodics will be looking to get on the scoresheet again having scored 5 goals in Blackburn Rovers' last 6 league games.
Southampton, Recent FormThe Southampton players will be feeling somewhat disenchanted with their inability to pick up any points from their away fixture against Ipswich Town recently, that ended in a 3-2 defeat. They came away from that fixture with a 65% share of the possession and clocked up 17 attempts on goal with 8 on target, in comparison to Ipswich Town, who managed 13 attempts on goal, 6 of which were on target.
Whilst manager Russell Martin will be pleased with his team's performance in front of goal, having scored 13 goals in their last 6 games, he will want to tighten up his defence if they are to pick up more points, with 13 goals conceded in the same period. Their goal scoring streak now stands at 31 games in a row.
Having clocked up 4 wins from their last 6 away matches, they've shown a good streak of form away from home of late.
On an individual basis, Adam Armstrong has scored in each of Southampton's last league game.
The last time these two teams met Southampton enforced their superiority over Blackburn Rovers with a comfortable 4-0 win.
When playing away from home in the league, The Saints have conceded at least one goal in each of their last 4 matches against Blackburn.
In the league, Blackburn have been unbeaten in their last 4 times they have welcomed Southampton to Ewood Park.
Blackburn manager John Eustace has some team selection issues to consider ahead of this match. John Fleck (Calf), Harry Leonard (Knock) and Arnór Sigurðsson (Ankle) are all currently out of contention for this game.
With only Juan Larios (Hamstring) and Ross Stewart (Muscle) the main fitness concerns ahead of this fixture, Russell Martin will be happy to have an otherwise healthy squad to pick from.
