Captain Mulgrew expected to face Leeds
Posted Friday, October 19, 2018 by PA
Blackburn skipper Charlie Mulgrew is expected to be fit for the home game against Leeds.
Mulgrew was withdrawn from Scotland’s Nations League defeat to Israel last week due to a tight hamstring, but has returned to full training with Rovers and should feature.
Fellow defender Ryan Nyambe is hoping to return to contention next week after being sidelined with a similar problem since the end of September.
Summer signing Jacob Davenport is edging closer to his first appearance for the club after two separate injuries since joining from Manchester City.
Leeds trio Kemar Roofe, Pablo Hernandez and Gaetano Berardi will all return to contention.
Striker Roofe (calf), midfielder Hernandez (hamstring) and defender Berardi (knee) are expected to be included in Marcelo Bielsa’s squad having been out since the end of August.
Winger Jack Harrison will play no part due to a muscle injury sustained in training during the international break.
Luke Ayling sits out a one-game ban and fellow defender Barry Douglas remains sidelined due to a hamstring injury.
