Pick of the stats: Blackburn Rovers v Sheffield United
- Published
Blackburn enter this game as one of five sides yet to record a win at home in the Championship. Their last victory at Ewood Park came on 26 April when they beat Watford 2-1, which was part of a four-game winning sequence.
Sheffield United know a win on Tuesday would take them above their opponents and potentially out of the relegation zone.
Blackburn Rovers have only won three of their past 12 league games against Sheffield United (D3 L6), although each of those three victories did come at Ewood Park.
Sheffield United won this exact fixture last season 2-0, but haven't won consecutive league visits to Blackburn since November 1970.
Blackburn are yet to win a home league game this season in four attempts (D1 L3); only in 1932-33 (5), 1979-80 (6), and 1996-97 (5) have they started a league campaign without a win in their first five or more at home.
Sheffield United have lost seven of their past nine away league games (W2), with no side losing more times on the road in the Championship since the start of April.
Sheffield United have never lost to Blackburn in the Championship under Chris Wilder (P4 W3 D1), with Wilder's only league defeat to Rovers coming as Middlesbrough boss in January 2022.
