The Sky Bet Championship fixture between Blackburn and Ipswich has been rearranged for Tuesday December 2, kick-off 7.45pm.
The original fixture at Ewood Park in September was abandoned in the 80th minute due to a waterlogged pitch.
Blackburn wanted the three points to be awarded to them because they were leading 1-0 in the match when it was called off, and Ipswich had seen a player red carded. However, the EFL refused that request.
As Sky Sports News reported last month, Ipswich will not consider allowing Blackburn to score a goal unopposed and will compete fully for the 90 minutes.
Ipswich had been reduced to 10 men due to Jacob Greaves’ sending off when referee Steve Martin temporarily suspended the match due to heavy rain at Ewood Park with 10 minutes of normal time remaining. After a short delay, it was called off altogether due to the state of the pitch.
The Ref Watch panel discussed what should happen next with Blackburn’s match with Ipswich after it was abandoned due to a waterlogged pitch, despite Rovers leading 1-0 in the 80th minute
Both clubs were consulted on their views of how the game should be decided before the EFL announced in late September that it would be replayed in full.
Blackburn boss Valerien Ismael said at the time that his side had “the right to want the three points”. He also went on to dispute that he was consulted over the abandonment during the original fixture.
The club have since said they are “very disappointed” with the league body’s decision, and have said they are “considering all options” including a potential appeal against the move.
The EFL could have decided the game counted as a completed match, or started the re-arranged game in the 80th minute – the same time the original fixture was called off.

Brundle: Why peak Verstappen leaves McLaren needing to play ace card
Max Verstappen and Red Bull were on blistering form in Austin, dominating both qualifying sessions along with relatively comfortable victories in the Sprint and the main Grand Prix.Sprint weekends seem to suit Max's talent and confidence, whereby you have one practice session before the relentless competition starts with Sprint Qualifying, Sprint Race, main Qualifying and, finally, the Race. There's a result all three days and, in many ways, they have a cumulative effect. It must be like dropping off the peloton in a cycle race, very hard to catch up.Any problems or incidents in practice limit your car set-up time and driver confidence on what is a constantly evolving track surface. A poor Sprint Qualy is likely to follow, leaving a driver with a lower grid position for a shorter race, and where contact is much more likely to happen.In […]
