Blackburn host Barnsley at Ewood Park in the EFL Championship on Wednesday, with both sides having contrasting seasons so far.
Blackburn have been flying off late and are on a seven-game unbeaten streak. Tony Mowbray's side are currently third in the league, three points off the top of the table. They will look to continue their momentum with a win against Barnsley on Wednesday.
Barnsley, on the other hand, have been woeful this season. Poya Asbaghi's side have only won two games so far this campaign and are currently 23rd in the league, six points off safety. It will be a huge ask for them to turn things around with a win against Blackburn on Wednesday.
It will be a great opportunity for Blackburn to climb up the table with a win on Wednesday.
