Blackburn Rovers vs Birmingham City live stream: match preview
Blackburn Rovers welcome struggling Birmingham City to Ewood Park on Saturday for a well-balanced FA Cup fourth round tie. Birmingham have lost their last five encounters with Rovers – can they avoid making it to six in Lancashire?
Six-time FA Cup winner Blackburn knocked out fellow champions Norwich to set up this encounter, with Jack Vale scoring the only goal of the match after an underhit pass got Canaries keeper Tim Krul into all sorts of trouble. Rovers haven’t reached this stage of the FA Cup since 2017, but with promotion back to the Premier League looking a real possibility for the first time in over a decade, Jon Dahl Tomasson’s side may have other things on their minds.
Birmingham have been in poor form in the league, losing five times in a row since beating Reading in mid-December. Their only win at the time came at Forest Green in the previous round of the FA Cup, but the Blues weren’t having a very good time. Ben Stevenson put the home side ahead within 10 minutes, but Lukas Jutkiewicz and Kevin Long both scored in the space of 15 minutes into the second half to calm Brummie’s nerves.
Blackburn Rovers vs Birmingham City kicks off on Saturday, January 28 at 3pm GMT / 10am EST at Ewood Park. Make sure you know how to watch a live stream of Blackburn Rovers vs Birmingham City.
