Preview: Blackburn Rovers vs. Bristol City

Blackburn vs. Bristol City

Blackburn Rovers head into this Saturday's FA Cup tie against Bristol City on a high after back-to-back wins over Barnsley and Nottingham Forest.

Bristol City are currently second-bottom of the Championship, but two wins in their last five outings have boosted morale at the club.

Robins boss Derek McInnes, who reached two Scottish Cup semi-finals with former club St Johnstone, is hoping a decent cup run will inspire his side to find form in their battle to remain in the Championship.

The two sides met in the league back in September, with Blackburn Rovers winning 5-2 at Ashton Gate.

Recent form:

Blackburn: DLLLWW

Bristol City: LWLDWL

Possible lineups

Blackburn: Kean, Olsson, Dann, Henley, Hanley, Lowe, Murphy, Rosado, Rhodes, King, Kazim-Richards

Bristol City: Heaton, Foster, Cunningham, McManus, Bates, Skuse, Anderson, Adomah, Danns, Baldock, Stead

Sports Mole says: 2-0
