Blackburn R. face a trip to Liverpool at Anfield on Saturday afternoon, needing to turn around their fortunes at the ground. The Rovers will be hoping to improve upon a record which has seen them lose 38 and win only 10 of the 63 games.
The most recent encounter between these two sides was less than a year ago, in March 2005, when they played out a goalless draw in a Premiership match.
