Blackburn Rovers host Swansea City at Ewood Park in an EFL Championship clash on Tuesday night, with Rovers finally looking to put together a consistent run of wins.
Blackburn have been erratic in the Championship so far this season, especially defensively. They have conceded 28 goals in 24 games so far.
Tony Mowbray's side only managed a 1-1 draw against Stoke City in their last game. A late goal from John Buckley cancelled out Nick Powell's opener in that game.
Rovers are currently seven points behind Reading, who are in sixth position - the last playoff spot.
Swansea City, on the other hand, are second in the Championship, four points behind leaders Norwich. With 46 points in 24 games, Swansea currently find themselves in an automatic promotion spot.
However, with half the season left to play, there are no guarantees of Premier League promotion at this stage.
In their last game, Swansea beat Barnsley 2-0 away from home, with goals from Ben Cabango and Jamal Lowe.
Blackburn Rovers vs Swansea City Head-to-Head
Blackburn have won exactly half of their 44 previous fixtures against Swansea. The Swans have beaten Rovers 15 times, while seven other games have ended in draws.
