Blackburn Rovers
Blackburn Rovers have experienced a mixed run of form in their recent fixtures, with their Championship campaign seeing them currently positioned 8th in the table. The Rovers have struggled for consistency, alternating between wins and losses in their last six matches across all competitions. Notably, they've managed back-to-back victories against Plymouth Argyle and West Brom in mid-February, showcasing their potential. However, their defensive record has been a concern, conceding eight goals in six games, including a 3-0 defeat to Swansea. On a positive note, Blackburn have kept two clean sheets during this period, both resulting in 2-0 wins. The team's goal-scoring output has been modest, averaging just one goal per game, with 67% of their matches seeing fewer than 2.5 goals. Their FA Cup journey came to an end with a 2-0 home defeat to Wolves, highlighting the challenges they've faced against higher-ranked opposition.

Recent home/away form
Stoke City
Stoke City's recent home form has been characterised by a series of draws, with four of their last six matches at the bet365 Stadium ending level. The Potters have struggled to find consistency, managing just one win in this period, a 3-1 victory over Swansea. Defensively, Stoke have shown some resilience, keeping three clean sheets in their last six home games, including back-to-back goalless draws against Plymouth Argyle and Oxford United. However, their attacking output has been inconsistent, with a high-scoring 3-3 draw against Cardiff City in the FA Cup contrasting with three matches where they failed to score. The team's goal difference over this period is neutral, having scored and conceded seven goals each, reflecting their mixed performances. Despite their 20th position in the league, Stoke's home form suggests they are difficult to beat, even if they are struggling to convert draws into wins.
Blackburn Rovers
Blackburn Rovers have been struggling away from home, with a concerning run of five defeats in their last six away matches. The team's sole victory came against West Brom, where they managed a clean sheet in a 2-0 win. However, this positive result is overshadowed by their current three-match losing streak on the road. Rovers' defensive frailties are evident, conceding an average of 1.67 goals per game whilst only scoring 0.83 goals per match themselves. Their away form has contributed to their mid-table position, sitting 8th in the Championship. Notably, 67% of their away games have seen over 2.5 goals, suggesting that despite their poor results, Blackburn's away matches tend to be high-scoring affairs, with both teams finding the net in half of these fixtures.
