Rovers ready

Blackburn manager Mark Hughes has no fresh injury worries ahead of his side’s Carling Cup semi-final first leg with Manchester United at Ewood Park tomorrow.

After resting five players for Saturday’s FA Cup third-round victory over QPR, Hughes is certain to field his strongest line-up.

Midfielder Steven Reid returns to the squad after serving a one-match ban.

Team (from): Friedel, Neill, Khizanishvili, Nelsen, Matteo, Bentley, Tugay, Savage, Pedersen, Dickov, Kuqi, Enckelman, Emerton, Bellamy, Thompson, Gray, Peter, Johnson, Gresko, Todd, Reid.
