Head to Head

  • Fulham won their first ever Premiership match 2-0 in this corresponding fixture last season when Blackburn started the day just outside the relegation zone, and ended in it.
  • Fulham are unbeaten in five home League matches against Rovers (3 wins, 2 draws).
  • Blackburn's only win in seven League visits to the West London club over ten years, was 0-1 in the old Division Two on 26 November, 1983.
  • It's over 43 years since' Rovers last and only top flight victory at Fulham. That was 0-1 on 19 December, 1959 in the old League - Division One.
  • Blackburn are in with a chance of completing their 'first' Premiership double over Fulham, first over them for a quarter of a century and fifth since they first met in the Football League in 1921.
  • These clubs have met three times in the Premiership and the trio have all resulted in home wins. The Cottagers may be seeking a third consecutive home maximum over Blackburn, but in Rovers they face a side who've won four of their last five, with clean sheets in three of them. They have lost three in seven, and failed to score in only one of their last eight League clashes.
