Is Leeds United vs Blackburn Rovers on TV? Kick-off time, channel, live stream and team news

Leeds United will be eyeing a quick return to winning ways when they welcome Blackburn Rovers to Elland Road on Saturday. Daniel Farke’s side were left disappointed in midweek after drawing 0-0 and failing to score at home for the first time since September.

Points dropped by both Leicester City and Ipswich Town offered some relief but with just four games remaining of the regular season, Leeds need to rediscover their form quickly. Saturday’s visitors remain in a relegation battle and so will be fighting for their lives and looking for a response to Wednesday’s 5-0 drubbing at Bristol City.
