Blackburn Rovers

After surviving Swansea City in the FA Cup replay, Bristol City will look to give fans yet another reason for celebration when they face Blackburn Rovers in the Championship round 28.

Coventry City and Norwich City square off against each other at Coventry Building Society Arena in what is expected to be one of the most exciting games of Saturday’s program.
