Preview: Blackburn Rovers vs. Leeds United

Sports Mole previews the Championship clash between Blackburn Rovers and Leeds United.

Blackburn Rovers go into their home match with Leeds United looking to overturn a run of form that has seen them earn just one victory in six matches.

The club's away form has played a large part in their failure to put together a period of regular positive results, but manager Gary Bowyer will be aware that he needs to improve on five points from the last half-a-dozen matches.

Leeds head to Ewood Park as one of the in-form teams in the Championship after four wins from five encounters.

Manager Brian McDermott has seen his team move into the playoff places, and victory in the North-West could see United move into fourth.

Attacker Ross McCormack has been in startling form for Leeds, scoring a remarkable seven goals in his last three games.
