Blackburn Rovers vs Wigan - Match Preview

Blackburn Rovers have one last roll of the dice tonight in their increasingly losing fight for survival when they take on Wigan tonight in the Sky Sports Monday Night Football attraction. The Latics will be going all out for the win knowing that a draw tonight might even be enough to keep them up depending on the results at the weekend. Blackburn however know they must win tonight. Kick-off at Ewood Park is at 8pm. Rovers boss Steve Kean could welcome Martin Olsson back to the side having missed the last three games with a groin complaint. Kean will give the player a late fitness test, as he also will to Bradley Orr (achilles). Defender Grant Hanley (knee) is still sidelined. Kean has confirmed that forward David Goodwillie will be part of the squad despite his community service order issued earlier in the week for assaulting a man in Glasgow. For Wigan, boss Roberto Martinez has a fully fit squad to chose from with striker Franco Di Santo declared fine from his calf knock and defender Ronnie Stam (hamstring) also available to play.
