What channel is Blackburn v Newcastle FA Cup match on? TV coverage, live stream and kick-off time
Check out how to watch Blackburn v Newcastle in the FA Cup, including TV channel, radio coverage and kick-off time.
Premier League outfit Newcastle United head to Ewood Park to face Championship strugglers Blackburn Rovers in a bid to reach the last eight of the FA Cup.
It is 69 years and counting since the Magpies last clinched a major trophy, and this competition represents their last chance to end their long wait in the current campaign, which is in danger of fizzling out as qualifying for next season's Champions League looks highly unlikely.
Eddie Howe is, therefore, likely to name a strong side in his bid for silverware, although the likes of Joelinton, Nick Pope and Callum Wilson remain sidelined by injury, while the Newcastle boss will be hoping Martin Dúbravka has recovered from the illness that forced him to miss last Saturday's 4-1 defeat at Arsenal.
Blackburn, who have won the FA Cup on six occasions, with the most recent being in 1928, have knocked out lower-league opposition in the form of League One Cambridge United and League Two Wrexham to reach round five.
A 1-1 home draw against Norwich City last Saturday made it three league stalemates in a row for Rovers, who are winless in four since a 3-1 defeat of Stoke City in new manager John Eustace's first game in the Ewood Park dugout earlier this month.
