The big bit of team news coming out of Ewood Park this week is that defender Hayden Carter faces up to a month on the sidelines.

The 22-year-old was left out of the game v QPR with a hamstring injury and a recent report from Lancashire Telegraph has revealed that he could be out until September.

Elsewhere, Blackburn have a clean bill of health, with two new names added to their roster this week in Sammie Szmodics and Tyler Morton.

Szmodics has arrived on a permanent deal from Peterborough United and LancsLive say that he could potentially make his debut v Swansea this weekend.

Morton meanwhile has arrived on loan from Liverpool and it’s said that he could also make his debut for Rovers this weekend, in an exciting boost for Jon Dahl Tomasson’s side.

It’ll be interesting to see whether or not either player features this weekend, or whether one or both of them might come straight into the starting line up.

The game kicks off at 3pm on Saturday afternoon.
