Manchester United will be without Darren Fletcher, who suffered an ankle
injury against Wigan.
Central defensive duo Nemanja Vidic and Rio Ferdinand will return after being
rested against Rangers in midweek.
Blackburn winger Morten Gamst Pedersen is expected to shake off a hamstring
injury that saw him substituted against Aston Villa.
Gael Givet was withdrawn at half-time in the same game due to illness, but
should be available for selection.

MATCH PREVIEW
- The road to Roo-demption continues with Wayne Rooney's first Old Trafford
start since his contract saga threatened to throw Manchester United into
chaos.
- A winning goal at Rangers has started the healing process, and Rooney can
aid the recovery by firing United to the top of the table against Blackburn
on Saturday.
- Sir Alex Ferguson's men have spluttered and coughed their way through the
season, but they go into the game on a remarkable 28-match unbeaten run, and
will be strong favourites to extend that sequence against a Rovers side who
have managed only one Premier League win in 16 attempts at Old Trafford.
- Sam Allardyce's side are in fine form, however, and are up to 11th in the
table after three wins in their last four. United will be wary of the
in-form Morten Gamst Pedersen, who has scored five in his last five matches
for club and country. The Norwegian winger netted a double in that sole
victory at Old Trafford in September 2005.
MATCH FACTS
Head-to-head
‧ Manchester United have not lost any of their last nine games (eight
league, one cup) against Rovers, winning seven of them.
‧ It is over four years since Rovers' last win over United - a 4-3 victory
in February 2006, when David Bentley scored a hat-trick and Rio Ferdinand was
sent off.
Man Utd
‧ United are the only unbeaten team in the country (all competitions).
‧ They are unbeaten in their opening 14 league matches for the first time
under Sir Alex Ferguson.
‧ United have scored at least twice in 12 of their 14 league games this
season. Only two clubs have stopped them scoring - Manchester City and
Sunderland.
‧ According to Opta stats, Rio Ferdinand has played more minutes than any
other outfield player without committing a foul this season (720).
Blackburn
‧ Blackburn have won three of their last four games in the league, scoring
twice in each match.

English club.

Skysports.com prediction: United 2-2 Blackburn
One to Watch: Morten Gamst Pedersen
Lawro's Premier League predictions United 2-0 Blackburn
Blackburn have had some good results of late, but I don't think that will
count for anything when they travel to Old Trafford.
Wayne Rooney is gradually getting his best form back and it will be
interesting to see whether United boss Sir Alex Ferguson plays him up front
alongside Dimitar Berbatov on Saturday.
The pair of them would cause plenty of problems, too many for Blackburn.
