Blackburn Rovers secured a 3-1 home victory over Millwall at Ewood Park, ending a four-game winless run. Dapo Afolayan, who celebrated his 29th birthday on Friday, opened the scoring just before halftime with a deft flick. Millwall equalized via a Lydon Dykes penalty, but Afolayan restored the lead with a thumping strike midway through the second half.

Andri Gudjohnsen sealed the win in stoppage time with a breakaway goal. Despite the result, Millwall rued missed chances, including a headed wide effort from Dykes and low crosses from their full-backs that went begging. Blackburn's defense held firm against late pressure, with Hayden Carter crucial in deflecting a late effort over.

The win moves Blackburn up the table as Millwall suffer their third league defeat in four games.
