Rovers are in Lancashire derby action this weekend when they host Preston.

From likely line-ups to the referee and the odds, all you need to know can be found below.

Key battle

Sam Gallagher was a thorn in Preston’s side, having a big hand in helping Rovers go 2-0 up at Deepdale in October. Ben Davies wasn’t playing on that day, and will look to shore up the North End backline.

Last meeting

Rovers were 2-0 up inside 10 minutes, before the visitors hit back with three unanswered second half goals. Gallagher had Rovers ahead, before a Declan Rudd own goal doubled the advantage. Tom Barkhuizen scored twice as Preston hit back to win.
