Head-to-head

• Manchester City last tasted a league victory at Ewood Park in 2003 when they won 3-2 in the third match of their campaign.

• Of the 14 Premier League meetings between the sides since 2002, Blackburn have the edge with five wins to City's two, sharing seven draws.

• The sides have notched 24 goals in their last seven matches, including a total of 12 in the last three meetings.

• Mark Hughes starts this season against the side he left last summer to go to City.

Blackburn

• Blackburn are looking to stretch their undefeated home league sequence to seven matches.

• If they win, Blackburn will have a hat-trick of victories on the opening day of the season, having won at Middlesbrough in 2007, and Everton in 2008.

• Last season, both Blackburn and Manchester City won a joint-high total of seven penalties each. Blackburn missed three of those, the most missed by any top-flight team.

• Benni McCarthy needs two more goals to reach 50 for the Lancashire club. Christopher Samba has made 99 appearances for Blackburn. Jason Roberts has made 299 career league starts.

Manchester City

• City have won only one of their last five opening day league matches (0-2 away at West Ham 2007).

• If City lose, it will be their 200th all-time Premier League defeat.

• Shaun Wright-Phillips needs one more goal to reach 50 career goals. If selected, Shay Given and Craig Bellamy will be facing their former club.
