Blackburn expect striker Jason Roberts to be fit to face leaders Manchester United in the Barclays Premier League tomorrow.
The striker had been the club’s only serious injury doubt with a groin strain ahead of the sell-out Ewood Park clash.
Midfielder David Dunn is fit after overcoming a knee problem to feature as a second-half substitute in last week’s defeat at Liverpool.
Otherwise, manager Mark Hughes reported some “bumps and bruises and people not 100%” but was generally “pleased enough with the fitness of the squad”.
Team (from): Friedel, Emerton, Samba, Nelsen, Warnock, Bentley, Vogel, Dunn, Reid, Pedersen, McCarthy, Santa Cruz, Roberts, Brown, Ooijer, Mokoena, Tugay, Khizanishvili, Derbyshire.
