Match Preview
Blackburn capitalised fully on Zak Sturge's red card last weekend as a five-minute brace from substitute Mathias Jorgensen sealed a 2-1 comeback win in London. That result ended a four-match winless streak that produced just one point, moving Rovers three points clear of the relegation zone.
Middlesbrough were denied in the sixth minute of stoppage time in gameweek 38 as Adam Randell broke the Teessiders' hearts in a 1-1 draw at the Riverside Stadium. Kim Hellberg's side are now only two points ahead of Ipswich after failing to win back-to-back Championship matches.
