Never an easy place or team to come up against, and thinking back to last year we were well and truly beaten in all of our encounters with Blackburn.

We had a decent win in midweek which hopefully will see Bianchi get the nod up front (unless Eriksson goes with 4-4-2, which I doubt) and will look to pick at least a point from this game following the defeat last week against Arsenal.

I feel we should be good enough to pick a point up, but do have a suspicion that we will come away with all three today and take us to sneak this 1-0.

Observer prediction.
