Ashley Young has scored in two of his three Premier League appearances against Blackburn.
Villa have won four and lost none of the last five meetings with Blackburn.
Villa's joint-worst Premier League defeat came against Blackburn (0-5) in season 1997-98.
Blackburn have only managed to win once in their last nine Premier League fixtures with Aston Villa.
Villa are currently on a 12-match unbeaten run in the league, winning eight of these games.
The last time that Villa managed to go 12 Premier League games without a defeat was back in March 2000.
Only on one occasion have they gone longer without a defeat (14 games) in between May and November 1998.
Martin O'Neill's side have conceded just two goals in their last five Premier League matches.
After going 11 games without a win in the Premier League under former manager Paul Ince, Blackburn have managed to go six games without a defeat since Sam Allardyce took the helm.
Benni McCarthy and Jason Roberts have managed to score eight of Blackburn's last nine in the Premier League between them.
