 Blackburn's back four is once again affected by missing regular defenders. This time central defender Chris Samba is suspended with a one match ban.
Midfielder Aaron Mokoena or Zurab Khizanishvili, look like they will be called in the starting back four. However, Brett Emerton returns from suspension and has proven in the past to be very versatile.
Andriy Shevchenko is doubtful as the striker injured his ankle during the week. He will undergo a late fitness test.
Claudio Pizarro had a virus but should have recovered in time to make an appearance.
Blackburn have recorded more points against Chelsea than any other Premier League Club.
