Blackburn Rovers, Recent FormA 0-0 draw and a point gained against Cardiff City in their previous meeting will have been considered a fairly decent result for Blackburn Rovers last time out. They came away from that fixture with 60% of the possession and clocked up 4 attempts on goal with 1 on target. By comparison, Cardiff City managed 11 attempts on goal, with 5 on target.
When it comes to attacking power John Eustace will be justly satisfied with his squad's performances of late, which has seen them chalk up 7 goals in their last 6 matches. However, it hasn't all been going well, and questions remain about their defence with 7 goals lost in those 6 matches resulting in some crucial points dropped. Playing at home, they've conceded a goal in each of their last 10 games.
They've had a less than ideal run of form recently, winning just 1 of their last 6 games.
On an individual basis, Sammie Szmodics will be looking to get on the scoresheet again having scored 18 goals in Blackburn Rovers' 33 league games this season.
Norwich City, Recent FormThe last league instalment for Norwich City produced a stunning 4-1 home win over Cardiff City. In that game they had 58% possession and managed 23 attempts on goal, with 8 on target, compared to Cardiff City who had 9 attempts and 3 on target.
It's been a rewarding period in front of goal, with 14 goals scored in their last 6 matches; that said, boss David Wagner will be less happy with his defence, who have conceded 7 goals in the same period. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 games, but playing away from home, they have conceded a goal in 15 of their 16 games this season.
They have had a strong run of form recently, being undefeated in 5 of their last 6 games and picking up 4 wins along the way.
On an individual basis, Josh Sargent is showing great form in front of goal having scored 6 goals in Norwich City's last 6 league games
The last league encounter between these two sides concluded with a 1-3 win for Blackburn Rovers.
In each of their last 5 games away from home in the league to Blackburn, The Canaries have scored at least 1 goal and will be looking to extend that run. Playing at home, Blackburn have failed to score in 2 of their last 3 league games against Norwich. The Norwich defence tends to hold pretty firm when they visit The Riversiders in the league, with Norwich conceding just 1 goal in their last 3 meetings.
Norwich has had a good run of league results away from home against Blackburn, winning their last 5 meetings at Ewood Park and being unbeaten in their last 5.
Gabriel Sara has scored in each of Norwich's last league game against Blackburn.
Blackburn manager John Eustace has some team selection issues to consider ahead of this match. John Buckley (Shoulder), Hayden Carter (Hamstring), John Fleck (Calf), Harry Pickering (Hamstring) and Joe Rankin-Costello (Leg) are all currently out of contention for this game.
With only Shane Duffy (Muscle) and Jonathan Rowe (Hamstring) the main fitness concerns ahead of this fixture, David Wagner will be happy to have an otherwise healthy squad to pick from.
