Rovers are 13th in the League, 6 points better off than Wolves. Before that hammering at Old Trafford they had won 3 out of 4 beating Villa and Wigan at home and Newcastle away. Sandwiched between those was a 4-2 defeat at Spurs. They will be welcoming Benjani and Pedersen who have been injured and Man Utd loanee Mama Diouf who was ineligible to play at Old Trafford. They have only lost at home this season to Arsenal and Chelsea and in Wolves two previous visits to Ewood Park in the Premiership the home team have won 3-1 and 5-1.
Wolves will be without Craddock, Jones, Mouyokolo and Fletcher through injury as well as long term absentees Henry and Guedioura while Dave Edwards may not be ready to start having only returned to training late this week after injury. But Christophe Berra will be back from suspension and will doubtless start. He will probably have Richard Stearman alongside him despite having made some costly errors in recent weeks. Stephen Hunt will probably be recalled in Dave Jones absence from midfield. So I expect a starting line up of;
Hennessey,
Zubar, Stearman, Berra, Ward
Hunt, Foley, Mancienne, Milijas, Jarvis
Doyle
With Brett Emerton absent with injury then Matt Jarvis will be looking from some joy against 35 year old Salgado and Wolves will be looking for their first clean sheet of the season. If the game is close it will be interesting to see if McCarthy would be prepared to bring on Ebanks Blake to go for all three points or if he would be happy with a draw on the day.
It would certainly be good to get some momentum going by getting a result. It was at this time last season that fortunes improved and this is a game that both teams will see as a winnable opportunity to add to the points tally. Lets hope the performance does as much to make the chilly northern air not too unpleasant as the thermals look set to be called into action.
