Yak is back for Blackburn

Blackburn striker Aiyegbeni Yakubu is set to make his return in tomorrow’s Premier League match against QPR at Ewood Park after a three-match suspension.

Defender Christopher Samba has been ruled out with a hamstring problem and Gael Givet will serve the first of a three-game ban following his sending off during the 7-1 defeat to Arsenal at Emirates Stadium last Saturday.
