Blackburn Rovers manager Steve Kean said Saturday's clash with Lancashire rivals Blackpool is the most important game of the season.
The teams are tied on 32 points - just one point above the relegation zone, and Kean knows a positive result at Ewood Park would go a long way to staying in the top flight next season.
"When you look at the points tally of both sides, I think it is the most important game of the season so far," Kean said.
