Rovers have seen two games changed in the latest round of Sky Sports picks including their derby against Preston North End at Ewood Park.

PNE were due to make the short trip across the M65 on Saturday, February 1 but the game will now be played on Friday, January 31 (8pm).

The points were shared when the sides met at Deepdale a couple of months ago following a goalless draw.

Paul Heckingbottom’s men currently sit 20th in the table, above the drop zone on goal difference, and are without a win in their last five games.

Rovers’ clash with Queens Park Rangers at Loftus Road has also been handed a new kick-off time.

The match will still take place on Saturday, February 8 but will now begin at 12.30pm rather than the original 3pm slot.

Rovers won 2-0 when the sides met at Ewood Park earlier this season thanks to goals from Lewis Travis and Danny Batth.

QPR find themselves at the foot of the table after a poor start to the campaign, with their only win to date coming against Luton at the end of August.

Rovers said in an official statement that ticket information for both fixtures will be confirmed in due course.
