Blackburn suffered their first loss last weekend as they were thumped 3-0 away at Bolton Wanderers. Two of the three goals conceded by Rovers were errors which did not please the Rovers coach.
Their season has started quite promising with a three consecutive home games starting off with a 1-0 home win against Norwich City and West Brom, then a 1-1 draw with Arsenal before tasting their first defeat last week away from Brockhall village.
Everton on the other hand will be without captain Tom Molyneux for 6 weeks as he damaged his ankle ligaments yesterday. George Waring is hoping to be involved again tomorrow after sitting out last week's draw with Reading as a precaution with a leg injury.
Last season's fixture at Finch Farm was a spectator's delight with Blackburn winning a seven goal thriller after coming back from 2-0 down to win 4-3 with the visitors scoring three in three minutes!!
