Paul Ince’s Blackburn Rovers take on Fulham in their Premier League Match at Ewood Park on Saturday.
Rovers will be hoping to bounce straight back from the 4-0 defeat by Arsenal at Ewood Park last Saturday, with Ince’s side looking to collect all three points and improve on their four point tally, which sees the North West team occupy one of the relegation spots at this early stage of the season.
Fulham will look to continue their good form, which has seen wins against the Gunners and Bolton Wanderers at Craven Cottage this season, with their only defeat coming away on the opening day against Hull City. Roy Hodgson seems to have turned the Cottagers around after nearly being relegated last season and Fulham look comfortable in 7th place, with a game in hand.
Blackburn will be without summer signing Vince Grella, who has a calf strain, while Andre Ooijer (hamstring) and David Dunn (calf) are both very doubtful for the visit of Fulham. Roque Santa Cruz is set to lead the attack for Rovers.
The only injured player in the Fulham squad is Diomansy Kamara, who is out until January with a knee injury, with Hodgson hoping new signing Andy Johnson can continue the good form he showed in his Fulham debut last week against the Trotters.
Blackburn Rovers: (from) Robinson, Warnock, Samba, Tugay, Nelsen, Emerton, Santa Cruz, McCarthy, Pederson, Khizanishvili, Vogel, Mokoena, Reid, Andrews, Villanueva, Peter, Simpson, Fowler, Derbyshire, Kane, Olsson, Roberts, Brown, Nolan, Judge.
