Team News

Blackburn
Bristol City
  • Striker Makhtar Gueye is suspended, so Yuki Ohashi could make his way into the starting XI for the visit of Bristol City.
  • Elsewhere, right-back Callum Brittain is a doubt, so Joe Rankin-Costello could be called upon to deputise in the back line.
  • Centre-back Luke McNally could make his debut for Bristol City this weekend, replacing Kal Naismith at the back.
  • Rob Atkinson and George Earthy are among four injury concerns for Liam Manning this weekend.

Prediction

  • Andreas Weimann scored a sensational early goal against Burnley last time out as Blackburn kept their unbeaten start to the season going with a respectable point away from home at Turf Moor.
  • Rovers have been one of the surprise packages of the season so far, hitting the ground running under John Eustace.
  • Bristol City turned in a concerning performance at Pride Park two weeks ago, giving up 19 shots in a narrow 1-0 away defeat against newly-promoted Derby.
  • Consistency looks set to be an issue once again for the Robins this season, as they head into gameweek five with one win and two draws from four league outings.
