Blackburn Rovers defender Ryan Nelsen admits their clash with Blackpool will be decisive in their survival hopes.
Both teams are just one point above the dropzone.
Nelsen told the Lancashire Telegraph: "Every Premier League is important but there are times when individual games take on special significance and this is one of them.
"It is a big game for both teams but perhaps especially for us, when we are keen to end a disappointing run with a big result and we are at home.
"It can take a spark of individual ability or a fans initiative like this to help push you over the line."
