Lewis Travis subbed on in Blackburn 2-1 win

Lewis Travis, sponsored by MightyTips, was subbed on in Blackburn Rovers’ 2-1 win over Bristol City in the EFL Championship. Dimitrios Goutas started and played all 90 minutes in their narrow 1-0 loss to Birmingham. While Liam Palmer played 74 minutes during Sheffield Wednesday's 3-1 loss away to Norwich. Huddersfield saw a 3-1 loss at the hands of Preston North End, with Jacob Chapman not in the squad.

Lewis Travis played six minutes and saw out a 2-1 win for Blackburn Rovers. Goals from Sigurdsson and Wharton sealed the win for the Lancashire men. Travis picked up a yellow card for rough play, but out of his only 2 touches of the ball, one successful pass.

Blackburn maintain an eighth spot in the EFL Championship, flirting with the prospect of heading into the top six.

Match highlights: Blackburn Rovers vs Bristol City

Goutas had a good game, having a player rating of 7.4 - creating one big chance and recording a shot on target. Unlucky during this game, Cardiff’s only conceded goal meant they would go on to lose to a solid Birmingham City.

Juninho Bacuna scored Birmingham’s only goal. The loss means Cardiff take a dash to their promotion hopes.

Liam Palmer saw yellow during his 74 minutes on the field. It was not his best game, however he did record 75% accurate passes. With 38 total touches on the ball, three ambitious passes into the final third were recorded.

Sheffield Wednesday had a poor game which saw them get overrun at Carrow Road.

Danny Ward scored Huddersfield’s only goal in their 3-1 loss to Preston. An early goal from Alan Browne meant Preston had the Yorkshire side on the backfoot only three minutes in. With another goal added by Keane in the 39th, Huddersfield could only add a consolation.

Huddersfield’s problems mean they remain 21st in the league, only two points clear from relegation-bound QPR.

Huddersfield head coach Darren Moore:

We were not good enough. The performance wasn't what we wanted or expected. If the performance isn't there, you can't expect to win games. It serves as a reminder for us that we cannot perform like that and expect to get anything out of the game. That is me as a manager being honest. We know at Huddersfield Town we can't approach any games and be off the pace or the tempo. We know in order to win games and get results then we have got to get everything right.

Blackburn Rovers will travel to St. Mary’s to face off with Southampton on the 16th December. On the same day, Huddersfield Town face off with Millwall - we hope to see Jacob Chapman feature in the squad. Cardiff travel to Hull and hope to pick up points, while Sheffield Wednesday will search for more wins against QPR. Dimitrios Goutas will look to continue his good form, and Liam Palmer may be part of the starting XI once more.
