Savage is Rovers Cup doubt

Blackburn boss Mark Hughes remains hopeful that four players will shake off injuries to be available for Sunday’s FA quarter-final against Leicester.

Robbie Savage (groin) is the biggest doubt. He is viewed as being a 50-50 chance to face the Foxes.

But Dominic Matteo (thigh), Brett Emerton (calf) and Paul Dickov, who suffered a bruised thigh at Everton last week, should all be available.

Team (from): Friedel, Neill, Todd, Nelsen, Johansson, Thompson, Reid, Mokoena, Flitcroft, Pedersen, Dickov, Enckelman, Stead, Gallagher, Tugay, Short, Savage, Emerton, Matteo, Johnson.
