Wolves vs Blackburn Rovers - Match Preview

Team news ahead of the relegation six pointer between Wolves and Blackburn Rovers at the Molineux this afternoon. Kick-off time is at 3pm and the match is not being screened live anywhere in the UK. Wolves captain Roger Johnson has been included in the squad after being disciplined for turning up for training on Monday in an unfit state. Johnson had been dropped for the past two games before the problems on Monday. On loan Spurs defender Sebastien Bassong should play having overcome his hamstring injury. Both players missed the heavy 5-0 defeat at Fulham last weekend. David Davis has been recalled from his loan spell at Chesterfield to boost midfield numbers with Karl Henry sidelined with a hamstring injury. Dave Edwards did resume training this past Thursday after being sidelined for a fortnight and could also be in contention. Finally top scorer Steven Fletcher has recovered from his illness to play. For Blackburn, Gael Givet and Jason Lowe return from their respective suspensions however they are both lacking match practice and Steve Kean may opt to pick them for the bench instead of the starting eleven. David Dunn could start having come off the bench last weekend to score the equaliser in the 1-1 draw with Aston Villa.
