Formula to Get Data based on specific day of week

I have a table (Name: Previous) that has the count of the total service tickets that have been opened. I am trying to get the data that shows how many service tickets were opened on a specific day for the past 4 weeks. Image of the table is below. 

For example I want the number of open tickets for the previous Thursday, 2 Thursday's ago, 3 Thursday's ago, and 4 Thursday's ago.

Try creating a separate Date (or Calendar) table, relate that to your service ticket data. Then you will have a weekday field in the calendar table which can then be used in filters

To get started, here's a good guide Creating a simple date table in DAX - SQLBI

 

This table could also be built out to include other handy date calculations like weeks since today, etc.
