Blackburn Rovers face Stoke City in the Championship tomorrow night.
Blackburn Rovers head to the bet365 to face Stoke City tomorrow evening, with Jon Dahl Tomasson’s side looking to secure a sixth-straight win in all competitions. Rovers are unbeaten in their last 11 games in all competitions and go into this game in 4th place of the table – two points behind Middlesbrough in 3rd.
And ahead of tomorrow, Tomasson spoke to the press where he gave an injury update on his side.
The Dane said:
“Jack Vale was unlucky against Leicester U21s, he got a kick in his ankle and will be out for a while. It’s going better with Scott [Wharton], he’s slowly becoming involved. Same with Thomas [Kaminski]. Dacky and Ayala haven’t been involved yet.”
Blackburn Rovers’ U21 side beat Leicester City’s U21 in a Premier League 2 fixture in midweek. Tomasson was in attendance and youngster Jack Vale was involved, but he picked up an injury and so he’ll be sidelined for a while now.
Thomas Kaminski and Scott Wharton are seemingly closing in on a return to action but Daniel Ayala and Bradley Dack look to be sidelined for a longer period of time.
All coming together…
Despite having some tough fixtures of late and a lot of injuries to contend with, Blackburn Rovers look to be in good shape. They’re quickly asserting their spot in the top-six and with the likes of Kaminski and Wharton looking set to return before the end of the season, Rovers fans might fancy their chances in the play-offs.
Up next though is a tough trip to Stoke City. With the weather looking set to be challenging and Stoke City finding a bit of form, it’ll make the game all the more difficult.
Tomorrow’s game kicks off at 8pm and will be shown live on Sky Sports.
