Preview: Blackburn Rovers vs. Charlton Athletic

Blackburn Rovers entertain Charlton Athletic at Ewood Park on Saturday looking for their first win in five Championship games.

Michael Appleton takes charge for the first time since joining the club from Blackpool, but must turn around a poor run of form that has seen them stay stuck in mid-table.

Rovers drew 1-1 with Wolverhampton Wanderers on their last outing.

Chris Powell is aiming to mastermind the Addicks' third league win on the spin following victories over Watford and Blackpool.

However, they were sent crashing out of the FA Cup by Huddersfield Town at home.
