Ipswich Town were beaten 2-0 at Blackburn this afternoon.
Lambert spent six months in charge of Blackburn during the 2015/16 season, guiding them to a 15th place finish before activating a release clause in his contract.
“It was really short but I really enjoyed my time there,” he said.
“It’s a good club that maybe had lost its way a little bit in certain things and I’m looking forward to going back. I watched their game on Tuesday (4-2 home defeat to Newcastle, after extra-time, in an FA Cup third round replay) and they did well.
“It’s a tough game but hopefully it is for them as well. We have to go and do what we’ve been doing and try and win.”
The Blues go into this game looking to back up their 1-0 victory over Rotherham last time out.
