Blackburn R. are ready to welcome West Ham United to Ewood Park on Saturday afternoon, looking to continue an impressive record. The Rovers are clearly on top, having won 28 and lost only 11 of the 46 games.
The previous match played between the two at Ewood Park was within the last three years, in December 2002, where the two teams cancelled each other out in an enthralling 2-2 draw in a Premiership match.
