Comments:

This the fourth time that Liverpool had reached the 6th round of the FA Cup in the last 19 seasons. The Reds have now lost on only two of Rovers' last 25 visits to Anfield in all competitions. They are now unbeaten at home in their last 14 matches in league and cup (seven wins and seven draws). Prior to this game, Daniel Sturridge had scored ten goals in this last 12 starts in the FA Cup.

Comments:

Blackburn Rovers had reached the 6th round of the FA Cup for the second time in three seasons. Rovers have now not won in their last 12 visits to Anfield since their victory in the FA Cup in January 2000 when Nathan Blake scored the game's only goal.
