Important match for both team as they both will looking in it for a way to bounce back to the winning streak.City from the following Uef Champions defeat against Bayern Munich 2-0,and Rovers from heavy defeat last week from Newcastle 3-1.It will be interesting to see a score line at the end of match as Man City has already scored 19 league goals in this season,and 10 of them netted on the club’s away matches.To reflect at Ewood Park Rovers in their last eight matches have managed to keep only one clean sheet .
