Blackburn VS Liverpool


Liverpool kick off their busy December schedule with a trip to Blackburn Rovers on Saturday.

Following last weekend's Merseyside derby success over Everton, the Reds are currently on a five match unbeaten run and will be aiming to continue their fine record at Ewood Park, where they have lost just once since 1996.

In fact, Liverpool have been defeated in only one of their last 21 league meetings with the Lancashire club.

Rafa Benitez's charges recorded a league double over Blackburn last term, and on the corresponding weekend of 2008-09, won 3-1 at Rovers thanks to second half goals from Xabi Alonso, Yossi Benayoun and Steven Gerrard.
