Fulham face a trip to Blackburn Rovers at Ewood Park on Saturday afternoon, needing to turn around their fortunes at the ground. The Cottagers will be hoping to improve upon a record which has seen them lose 24 and win only 9 of the 41 games.
The most recent encounter between these two sides was less than a year ago, in January 2010, with Blackburn running out comfortable 2 - 0 winners in a Premier League match.
