Blackburn Rovers, Recent FormIt was just a point apiece for Blackburn Rovers and Preston North End in their last match, which ended in a 1-1 draw. In that game they had 56% possession and managed 9 attempts on goal, with 3 on target, compared to Preston North End who had 13 attempts and 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. Unable to deliver a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 games, it's fair to say they have their troubles at the back.
There will be mixed feelings from Rovers, while they've been undefeated in their last 4 league games, they've drawn their last 4.
Burnley, Recent FormAny Burnley pre-match expectations for their last outing were misplaced, after an unexpected 2-1 home defeat by Queens Park Rangers. Their share of possession in that meeting was 81%, while racking up 21 shots along the way, 6 of which were on target. Queens Park Rangers had 6 shots on goal with 5 on target.
It's reasonable to say they have enjoyed some decent goal scoring form of late, with 7 goals notched up in their last 6 matches, but while their offensive line is working, their defensive setup has shown cause for concern with 5 goals shipped and valuable points dropped. With 19 clean sheets so far this season, they have one of the best shut out records in the league. Few teams have managed to keep The Clarets away from their goal, having scored in all but 4 of their games this season.
There will be mixed feelings from The Clarets, having been undefeated in their last 11 away league games, but drawn the last 2 of these games.
Nathan Tella will be keen to add his name to the scoresheet and build on his current scoring record of 5 goals in the last 6 league games for Burnley.
Blackburn Rovers will be looking to forget their last league encounter with Burnley, when a slew of goals ended in a heavy 3-0 defeat.
The Clarets have managed to keep a clean sheet against Blackburn in each of their previous 3 meetings. The Blackburn defence has struggled against The Clarets in past meetings, having conceded 1 or more goals in each of their last 7 games. Rovers have struggled to break down the Burnley defence in their past encounters having only managed to find the back of the net 2 times in their last 5 meetings.
Burnley will be looking to continue their winning streak against Blackburn having won in their last 4 meetings in the league.
Blackburn manager Jon Dahl Tomasson has some team selection issues to consider ahead of this match. Daniel Ayala (Hamstring), Clinton Mola (Ankle), Harry Pickering (Leg) and Jack Vale (Ankle) are all currently out of contention for this game.
Vincent Kompany has a number of injury concerns in his Burnley squad to contend with: Josh Brownhill (Ankle), Jay Rodriguez (Lack of fitness) and Nathan Tella (Hamstring)
