Savage a doubt for Rovers

Robbie Savage is a major doubt for Blackburn’s Barclays Premiership trip to Liverpool tomorrow night.

The 30-year-old – who announced his international retirement this week – is still suffering with the groin strain which ruled him out of Sunday’s FA Cup quarter-final win over Leicester.

Match-winner Paul Dickov is also facing a fitness battle as he struggles to shake off groin and thigh problems, but Dominic Matteo should come back into contention after a thigh complaint.

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