Blackburn Rovers vs Bristol City: Team News and Match Preview
Blackburn Rovers
Jon Dahl Tomasson saw the Rovers come close to the playoffs last season and will want to get their step in the promotion lottery this time around. Blackburn started brightly but a run of three successive defeats brought them back. Their win over Blackpool would have surely rejuvenated their confidence and we expect an interesting bout at Ewood Park over the weekend.
Bristol City
Nigel Pearson's side disappointed last season as they finished in the bottom half of the points table. It was a dramatic fall from grace for a side that was contending for automatic promotion a season before. They have impressed in recent weeks with a run of five matches without a defeat. They have to thank Andreas Weimann for their change in fortunes, the Austrian leading from the front with three goals and two assists.
