Comments:

Blackburn Rovers remained without a win against Liverpool in the FA Cup at Ewood Park since 1 March 1958. They had won only one of their last five home games in the League Championship. Rovers had now won one of last 12 meetings with Liverpool. They had now been knocked out of FA Cup in five of last six seasons by Premier League teams.

Comments:

Liverpool were now unbeaten in their last six FA Cup meetings at Ewood Park (won four and drawn two). The Reds had now lost three of last 31 league and cup meetings with Blackburn Rovers. They had won all four away games in this season's FA Cup run by a single goal margin. This was Liverpool's 50th game in 2014-15 in all competitions.
