Today's game between Blackburn Rovers and Wrexham will kick off at Oct 24, 2026, 10:00 AM.
Blackburn Rovers vs Wrexham is available to watch live in the United States on Paramount+, which holds exclusive rights to over 250 EFL Championship matches per season. The TV channel and live stream options are listed below.
Blackburn Rovers host Wrexham at Ewood Park in the EFL Championship, with both sides sitting in the top half of the table and looking to push further up the standings.
Tony Mowbray's Blackburn side come into this fixture in reasonable shape, sitting 10th in the Championship. Three wins from their last five outings show a team capable of putting results together, though a 3-2 defeat to West Bromwich Albion in their most recent game will have tempered the mood at Ewood Park.
Wraxham arrive in Blackburn on the back of a convincing 4-1 win over Preston North End, a result that lifted Phil Parkinson's side to 14th in the table. The Red Dragons have been inconsistent this season, but that victory will have done plenty for confidence heading into this trip north.
Parkinson's side have shown they can compete at Championship level, and a win at Ewood Park would represent a genuine statement result for a club still establishing itself in the second tier.
Mowbray knows his Blackburn side cannot afford to be complacent. Wrexham's recent form and the attention that follows the club make this a fixture with more weight than the table positions alone might suggest.
