Match Facts
Blackburn Rovers have lost each of their last two league games against Sheffield Wednesday and will be looking to avoid recording three successive defeats against the Owls for the second time in the span of 11 meetings.
Sheffield Wednesday have failed to win on any of their last three visits to face Blackburn Rovers at Ewood Park (D1 L2) since a 1-0 win at this venue in September 2016.
Blackburn Rovers have failed to win any of their last five home league games (D4 L1), not enduring a longer such streak at Ewood Park since a run of seven matches which ended in April 2021.
Only Norwich City (41) and Rotherham United (59) have conceded more goals away from home in the Championship this season than Sheffield Wednesday, though the Owls have won three of their last five such matches (L2). None of Wednesday’s last ten away league matches have seen both sides score.
Blackburn Rovers’ Sammie Szmodics has scored 24 Championship goals this season, none of which have been penalties; since 2004-05, the only two players to reach 25 goals in the competition in a season without netting a penalty are Ollie Watkins in 2019-20 (25) and Teemu Pukki in 2018-19 (29).
