Blackburn Rovers' loss to Sunderland caused them to fall eight points behind second place in the battle for automatic promotion, and they will be looking to catch up when they play in-form Middlesbrough on Thursday. Middlesbrough is in 10th place with 33 points, while third-placed Blackburn has 39 points going into this game. Prior to this game, Blackburn Rovers had lost their previous two games. They had lost 4-1 to Nottingham Forest and 2-1 to Sunderland in league play. Blackburn Rovers will not enter this game with a lot of confidence after suffering four losses in their previous six league games, but the worst that can happen is that they lose again.
