BLACKBURN ROVERS manager Tony Mowbray says the biggest growth area at the club during his five years in charge has been in individual development.

The development coach role is becoming a mainstay in the Premier League and beyond. We show them best practice - who has had the most shots and assists in this league if you’re a wing back or a number 10. ????

Three goals in 12 games, one win in their last eight, 13 points from 12 fixtures, you'll be well versed in Rovers' stuttering statistics at the…

But trying to do so shouldn’t come at the expense of the one thing that Rovers have nailed, and that’s being hard to beat. The expected goals metric would indicate that Rovers should have scored 12 goals in this period, at an average of one per game. The very fact they have managed to take 13 points from just three goals conceded is testament to their incredible defensive record. Still in the same way that a collective effort is required for the amount of clean sheets Rovers have managed, so too is it to get them back scoring again. So Rovers must ensure that they don’t take their eye off the one area of the team that is functioning so well in a bid to potentially fix issues at the other end of the pitch. With four 0-0s in this run, had Rovers managed that one game in each of those four games, they would have eight more points on the board.

Gary Rowett has named an unchanged starting XI for Tuesday night's Sky Bet Championship meeting with Blackburn Rovers at Ewood Park.

Jake Cooper, who became the matchwinner for the second game running at Reading on Saturday, starts in the heart of the defence, with Daniel Ballard and Benik Afobe also retaining their places.

Bradley Dack hasn't played in the Championship since March 2021 after undergoing surgery on a second ACL injury.

In my mind, I hope we're 3-0 up and he doesn’t have to come on on Saturday.” But he can get the ball around the edge of the box and stick someone in, or bend it in himself. He’s not ready in my mind but his injury is fit, it’s just he’s not match fit.

The hard-earned point moved them up a place with just Middlesbrough and QPR between them and sixth – but they will need to show more attacking threat to keep their hopes alive. Joe Rothwell had appeals for a penalty rejected and in the face of the Lions’ dogged defence the home side began to run out of steam and ideas. It was a sixth clean sheet in their last nine games and they moved up a place in the table to ninth, though fell one point further off the top six.

Dack returning could be a massive boost in what remains of this season, and whilst it may take some time to return to full fitness, he is someone who could play a big part in helping his side secure a play-off spot. Missing the entire campaign thus far, Bradley Dack appears to be stepping up his recovery, and on a brighter note, the 28-year-old is expected to be included in Blackburn’s squad at the weekend. A statistic that appears to be even more concerning is that Rovers have netted just twice in their last 10 league games.

Started the game very brightly and picked up some dangerous positions in the opening half - also hitting the post with a cross, but he will probably tell you it was a shot. Was consistent with his passing and deliveries into midfield and got the better of the Millwall front line. The Dutchman was composed on the ball and rarely missed a header throughout the game. Was composed on the ball and was dominant in his aerial duels. Was confident with stepping out with the ball and trying to get Rovers on the counter attack. Rankin-Costello was found in behind the Millwall defence, but somehow dragged his effort wide of Bartosz Bialkowski's goal.

We knew it was going to be a difficult game, on the back of travelling up here previously and having a lot of games, expending an awful lot of energy with a really limited squad at the moment. One chance first half, I think Gallagher, another half-chance second half and then a great save from Bart, probably the biggest moment of the game to get us a clean sheet and a point. And yet, we are left frustrated that we didn't win a game we deserved to win." "Chances came and the chances went. Ultimately it was an opportunity missed for Blackburn, who failed to make ground on the top two and will also be looking nervously over their shoulder at the play-off chasers. We dominated in all areas I think, against a team that have won five on the bounce and are dangerous.

Blackburn Rovers will be aiming to get back on track in the Championship this evening by picking up a positive result in their showdown with Millwall.

Blackburn will need the likes of Sam Gallagher and Tyrhys Dolan to step up to the mark in this fixture if they are to have any chance of picking up a positive result in-front of their supporters. Set to face a Millwall outfit tonight who have won each of their last five league games, Rovers know that a failure to deliver the goods in this fixture could lead to them suffering another setback. Since the turn of the year, Tony Mowbray’s side have experienced a dip in form which has hindered their progress in the second-tier.

Rovers huffed and puffed but couldn't blow down the Mill-wall as they were made to settle for a goalless draw at Ewood Park.

Scott Wharton’s looping header which clipped the top of the crossbar was as close as they came in a closing stages which never promised a grandstand finish. They made a change in both personnel, and formation, for the second half as they switched to a back four. Rarely have they had teams come and sit back quite so much at Ewood, but Millwall were clearly respectful of their Ewood record and happy to sit in with a back five and two holding midfielders infront of them.

Chances came and chances went but Tony Mowbray stressed the positives of his side's display in the 0-0 draw with Millwall at Ewood Park.

We’re not free-scoring at the moment because we don’t have those individuals and that’s no coincidence. “We have to keep going, keep believing, keep the energy and all the positive things that were on show. “I’ve talked to them about the positives, we have to keep pushing, keep believing. “We’re left frustrated, but we have to be ruthless. “That’s what we have to aim to do. “We missed the chances, but we have to keep going, we have everything to play for.
