It's another Rovers change, this time Ben Marshall is taken off with Chris Taylor his replacement.

Oh, it should be 1-0. An unmarked Fode Koita gets on the end of a cross but from six yards out he heads straight at Dorus De Vries. Either side and it's a goal. 

Ben Osborn creates some room for himself in the Rovers box and manages to get a low shot away, but Jason Steele gets down well at his near post and keeps out the effort.

We've got 20 minutes left of this game. The second half is to put it politely, not the best. 

Fode Koita puts his laces through one from 30 yards but it fizzes over the crossbar. 

The first groans from the home fans as Craig Conway sends a pass back into his own half. The Rovers fans urging their side to get the ball forward here. 

Blackburn make their first change of the game with Corry Evans coming on for Danny Guthrie in midfield. 

Rovers have their sixth corner of the game but it's headed clear under his own crossbar by Michael Mancienne. 

So an hour gone here at Ewood Park and no sign of goal. Rovers legend Alan Shearer is in attendance after having a road named after him earlier, and this game is crying out for him.

It's starting to become very scrappy at Ewood Park now. Fode Koita is the latest player to be booked, this time for a foul on Eric Lichaj. 

Forest make the first change of the game as Nelson Oliveira comes on for Jonathan Williams. He wastes his first pass of the game.

Marcus Olsson is show the yellow card for a body check. That's two apiece now.

Blackburn have yet another corner but Shane Duffy's looping header is comfortably plucked out of the sky by Dorus De Vries. 

A good period of Forest possession ends with a Henri Lansbury shot from 20 yards but his fierce effort is straight down the throat of Jason Steele. 

Blackburn break through Hope Akpan but several Rovers deliveries into the Forest box fail to beat the defence and the danger is cleared. 

Danny Guthrie becomes the first Blackburn player to receive a yellow card for a cynical foul on Dexter Blackstock. The free-kick is delivered into a dangerous area but no Forest attacker can get on the end of the delivery.

And it's Nottingham Forest who get the second half under way. 

Approaching the start of the second-half at Ewood Park with carol singers keeping the fans entertained during the break.
