Arsenal are fighting to end a four-match winless streak against one of the seven Premier League clubs to have beaten them this season...
Blackburn only had four shots on target against Arsenal at Ewood Park, but thanks to two own goals by the Gunners they won 4-3.
Mikel Arteta has scored five goals in the Premier League versus Blackburn, more than against any other opponent.
Paul Robinson has conceded 53 goals against Arsenal in the Premier League; more than any other keeper against any opponent in the competition.
Robin van Persie has scored 10 goals in 12 games in all competitions against Blackburn.
David Dunn has scored five goals in eight Premier League games for Blackburn against Arsenal.
Blackburn have converted the highest percentage of scoring chances away from home this season (22%).
Defeat last time out against Manchester United ended a nine match unbeaten run for the Gunners at the Emirates.
The last 0-0 draw at the Emirates in the Premier League came when Blackburn visited in April 2011.
Starting with that goalless draw, Blackburn have lost just five of their last 15 matches on the road (W2 D8 L5).
Blackburn haven't kept a clean sheet away from home in their last 14 Premier League games since that 0-0 draw at the Emirates.

Chelsea's home record hasn't been great this season, however after tripping up leaders Manchester City in December, they will be hopeful of causing Manchester United trouble......
Aston Villa were humiliated on their last visit to Tyneside, but will have an opportunity to claim revenge in front of the cameras on Sunday lunchtime......
Fulham have been a bit of a bogey team for Manchester City in recent seasons - will they be the ones to end the Premier League leaders' perfect home record?...
