Match Facts

  • Blackburn Rovers are unbeaten across their last five league games against Portsmouth (W4 D1), since a 3-2 loss at Fratton Park in November 2008.

  • Portsmouth have lost each of their last three and six of their last seven (W1) away league games against Blackburn Rovers, with this fixture not seeing a draw at Ewood Park since April 2000.

  • Blackburn have won both of their Championship games against newly promoted teams this season, having gone nine without a win against promoted teams before this (D2 L7).

  • Portsmouth’s Colby Bishop has scored six goals in his last eight league appearances, netting in his first ever Championship appearance last time out in the 3-1 win over Preston.

  • Blackburn’s opening goal at Cardiff last time out was following a sequence of 41 passes before Andreas Weimann scored; only one Championship goal has had more passes in the build-up on record (since 2013-14), a Cesare Casadei goal for Leicester against Rotherham last December (54).
