Blackburn Rovers, Recent FormBlackburn Rovers were forced to settle for a share of the points in their last league match, which wound up a 1-1 draw against West Bromwich Albion. Their share of possession in that meeting was 50%, while racking up 10 shots along the way, 4 of which were on target, in contrast to West Bromwich Albion, who had 12 shots on goal with 4 on target.
Jon Dahl Tomasson will be quite satisfied with his squad's offensive prowess in recent performances. They have managed to notch up 4 goals from their last 6 outings. However, the manager will know they have work to do at the back where they have let in 7 goals and, as a result, lost some important points. They are showing great consistency at Ewood Park in finding the back of the net, having scored in 5 of their last 6 home games. When playing at home this season, Blackburn Rovers has notched up a tally of 7 clean sheets, highlighting the struggle some of their opponents have had to break through on goal.
There will be mixed feelings from Rovers, while they've been undefeated in their last 4 league games, they've drawn their last 4.
Bradley Dack will be aiming to add his name to the scoresheet again to extend his goal tally of 3 goals in the last 6 league outings for Blackburn Rovers.
Swansea City, Recent FormLast time out, Swansea City left content aftera 2-1 home win against Blackpool They came away from that fixture with a 76% share of the possession and clocked up 17 attempts on goal with 6 on target, in comparison to Blackpool, who managed 7 attempts on goal, 3 of which were on target.
Having lost 12 goals in their past 6 matches, boss Russell Martin 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 10 goals they scored. Having found the net in 5 of their last 6 matches, they will be pleased that their forward line have found some good and consistent form of late. They will need to tighten up at the back, having failed to keep a clean sheet in all but 1 of their last 6 away games.
This will be regarded as a poor run of form, with 3 defeats from their last 6 matches and just 2 victories.
With 3 goals from the last 6 away outings in the league, Liam Cullen has given the travelling Swansea City support something to shout about on the road.
After a good 0-3 win for Blackburn Rovers in this pair's last league encounter, Swansea City will certainly be looking for a better result this time round.
In each of their last 5 away matches in the league at Ewood Park, The Swans have let in at least 1 goal.
Swansea has had a poor run in this fixture when they visit Blackburn, being unable to find a win from any of their last 5 league meetings at Ewood Park.
Blackburn manager Jon Dahl Tomasson has some team selection issues to consider ahead of this match. Daniel Ayala (Knock), Sam Barnes (Knee), Thomas Kaminski (Knee) and Clinton Mola (Ankle) are all currently out of contention for this game.
There is only really one injury concern for the Swansea manager Russell Martin ahead of this clash, with Steven Benda (Cruciate ligament) missing out, which gives Martin a strong squad to pick his starting eleven from.
