Bristol City are unbeaten in their last five home games against Blackburn
The Robins are on a two-game winning streak at home
Recommended bet: Bristol City to win and both teams to score
Bristol City will look to get their push for automatic promotion back on track when they host Blackburn Rovers at Ashton Gate on Tuesday night. City once again find themselves in the mix for promotion this season and have an opportunity to jump up into second place with three points against Rovers.
The Robins need to respond after a 5-1 thrashing at the hands of Stoke City over the weekend but they make a welcome return to the home comforts of Ashton Gate, where they have been strong.
This stadium has not been a happy hunting ground for Blackburn over the years and, while Rovers have had a recent upturn in fortunes after back-to-back wins over Southampton and Leicester, the Lancashire outfit might well leave the West Country empty-handed on Tuesday.
Team news
City manager Gerhard Struber has had plenty of injury issues to deal with this season.
Luke McNally and Cameron Pring are still yet to feature this season for the Robins, while Harry Cornick and captain Jason Knight remain sidelined.
Rob Atkinson is the latest player to require the treatment room, alongside Max Bird, Joe Williams and Josh Stokes.
Blackburn have their own injury problems, with Moussa Baradji, Jake Garrett, Hayden Carter and Augustus Kargbo set to miss the trip south.
Todd Cantwell has returned to training after a knee injury but Tuesday’s game comes too soon for the midfielder.

Prediction
The Robins have been strong at home in recent weeks and they should have enough quality to beat a Blackburn side down in 19th place in the Championship standings.
In five of City's last six home games, both teams have got on the scoresheet so expect that trend to continue, in a game which should see the Robins swoop for all three points.
