This is the first ever FA Cup meeting between Blackburn and Cambridge, and first in any competition since January 1993 and a 3-2 win for Rovers in the League Cup quarter-final.
Cambridge have lost their last five FA Cup ties against second tier opponents, since a 2-0 win against Crystal Palace in December 1999.
Having lost five consecutive FA Cup third round ties between 2017-18 and 2021-22, Blackburn beat Norwich 1-0 at this stage last season eventually reaching the quarter-final.
Cambridge won their last FA Cup third round tie, beating Newcastle 1-0 in 2021-22. They last won successive ties at this stage between 1990 and 1992 (a run of three).
Fejiri Okenabirhie has scored in the first and second rounds of the FA Cup this season. He could become just the third Cambridge player to score in each of rounds one, two and three in the same FA Cup campaign, after Dave Simmons in 1973-74 and John Taylor in 1989-90.
