Weekend Football Preview





Blackburn Rovers v West Brom

After WBA's superb game (but not performance) against Blackpool last week, they will be looking for a further 3 points away at Ewood Park on Sunday. WBA will be looking to avenge the 3-1 defeat inflicted on them by BRFC only weeks ago but confidence will be high after the win against the seasiders.

While many baggies fans would have hoped to have seen John Carew line up today, it has not worked out and so the team will remain very similar to that of last week.

Boas Myhill will retain his place in goal while a late decision will be made on Jonas Olsson returning from injury and suspension. If it were me I would bring both Olsson and Ibanez in at CB, drop Tamas to the bench who has looked out of sorts over the last few games and push Scharner into CM and Dorrans up just behind Odemwingie.

Whether Odemwingie can handle the power of the likes of Ryan Nelsen and Chris Samba remains to be seen. Blackburn are a strange team, brilliant one week, awful next!

WBA should have their game plan set... Score first. Blackburn are tue only team in the Premier League not to take a point from being in a losing position!

IPWYMTS's Prediction
Blackburn 1 - 1 West Brom

The returning Olsson and Tamas will shore up the defence but the Baggies will concede. I fancy Dorrans to break his season's duck in Sunday!
