Rovers will kick off the 2023/24 Championship season with a home fixture against West Brom on Saturday, August 5.

Jon Dahl Tomasson’s men are aiming to build on last term’s seventh-place finish – their highest since relegation from the top flight.

They will begin at Ewood Park as expected, with Burnley kicking off their season at home the following week.

Rovers make the trip to Huddersfield on Boxing Day after Neil Warnock’s side managed to beat the drop last season.

Tomasson’s men also head to Hull on Friday, December 29 before hosting Rotherham on New Year’s Day.

The Easter weekend sees Rovers welcome Ipswich to Ewood Park on Friday, March 29 before heading to Sunderland on Monday, April 1.

The regular season concludes with a trip to Leicester, who were relegated from the Premier League last term.
