WATCH LIVE : Manchester United vs West Ham Live Stream EPL Full HD

On the back of a seven-match unbeaten streak and three clean sheets in a row, John Eustace would have anticipated that Blackburn would end their schedule before the October international break on a high note.

However, Rovers surprisingly lost their way, initially suffering a 3-0 defeat away at a struggling Coventry City outfit.

That was followed by a last-gasp 2-1 defeat at the hands of Plymouth Arygle, Blackburn having now failed to win any of their opening five away games in the second tier this season.

As for their home form, though, Eustace’s side have a perfect record, posting four successive victories and scoring 11 goals in the process.

Derby County, Oxford United, Bristol City and Queens Park Rangers have all been defeated, Blackburn scoring at least twice on every occasion.

While Blackburn may be free-scoring in front of their own supporters, they now face opposition with the joint-third best defensive record in the division.

Swansea have conceded just six times in their nine league games, incredibly not conceding more than once in a single fixture.

Luke Williams will feel frustrated that only 12 points have been recorded in nine outings, yet the foundations have been laid for a playoff push if they can improve in the final third.

The Welsh outfit are without a win in three games and have failed to score in the last two, albeit one of those encounters ending in a 1-0 defeat away at unbeaten Sheffield United.

Callum Brittain and Owen Beck are both options to return to the Blackburn XI after injury and suspension respectively.

Hayden Carter and Harry Pickering may drop out of the side, while the versatile Joe Rankin-Costello could feature in midfield.
