LIVE 12:45 Kickoff:
Blackburn Rovers vs Arsenal:
Teams will be up shortly.
*Both teams will be looking to win today, Blackburn will fancy their chances against a average Arsenal side who have only won one of their last 4 games in the BPL this season. They are both under pressure to get good results with Blackburn in 20th place and Arsenal in 12th. Arsenal will want to build confidence and I expect them to get a comfortable win at Ewood Park.*
