Blackburn Rovers host Millwall at Ewood Park in the EFL Championship on Saturday, looking to arrest their downward spiral.
The Riversiders have been winless in their last four league matches, failing to score in any of them. This run has seen them lose ground in the race for direct promotion to the Premier League.
They're down to third place with 54 points, four off second-placed Bournemouth and 10 behind leaders Fulham. Both teams also have two games in hand over Blackburn.
Millwall, meanwhile, have seen a contrasting set of fortunes lately, winning three of their last five league games and losing just once.
