⚽️Blackburn v Wolves⚽️™{live}

Guess who's back, back again..............................↗️
Halfy's back, tell a friend !



Full-back Derrick Williams is the latest addition to Blackburn's absentee list for the visit of Wolves.

Williams has a hamstring strain and joins Danny Graham (illness), Wes Brown (knee), Elliott Ward (ankle) and Adam Henley (hamstring) on the sidelines.

Caretaker boss Rob Edwards takes charge of Wolves for the first time following Walter Zenga's sacking on Tuesday.

Striker Joe Mason will miss the next few weeks after learning he needs an operation on a hernia injury.

Analysis

BBC Radio Lancashire's Andy Bayes: "Blackburn Rovers didn't deserve to lose at Bristol City last weekend. The reality is though that they did, and remain entrenched in the relegation places.

"Owen Coyle is convinced the team is making great strides since their horrendous start to the season, but individual errors are still costing them.

"If they can reproduce the performance of their last home game, against Nottingham Forest, they can win this game.

"A planned supporters' protest will go ahead. It's unclear how many fans will enter Ewood Park on 18 minutes and leave on 75. What is clear though is that the divide between the owners in India and fan base in Lancashire shows no sign of getting any closer."

BBC WM 95.6's Mike Taylor: "Rob Edwards has been entrusted with looking after the team while the club find a permanent replacement for Walter Zenga, if "permanent" is an appropriate term in the Championship any more.

"Could Edwards himself be given the chance in the long run? Several high-profile names have already been talked up as potential new bosses since Zenga's departure, but Edwards is well regarded at Molineux and it is not out of the question that he will be considered.

"Edwards was - wisely - coy about touting himself for the job in his press conference this week. If it turns out that he fancies the challenge, a couple of wins before the international break would be the best way of stating his case."
