Markus Olsson: 'Blackburn Rovers must forget about Burnley defeat'

Blackburn Rovers defender Markus Olsson targets a run of victories in order to put last weekend's East Lancashire derby disappointment to one side.

Markus Olsson has urged his Blackburn Rovers teammates to put last weekend's loss to Burnley behind them in order to get back to winning ways.

Rovers fell to a disappointing 1-0 defeat against their East Lancashire rivals last time out to make it three games without a win in the Championship.

Having slipped down the division over the past fortnight, Olsson wants to see Blackburn get their season back on track with a string of victories - starting at Elland Road this evening.

"We need to get a run going and hopefully it will start against Leeds United," he told the club's official website. "Sometimes playing nice football isn't something to be satisfied with. It is about winning games, it is about getting the three points.

"We have to forget about the Burnley game now and go to Leeds looking for three points and put it right. It feels like a proper English stadium and there's always a good atmosphere so it is good to go there as we usually have good support."

Blackburn can climb four places up to 14th with victory over Leeds in West Yorkshire.
