These sides met on the final day of the 2010/11 season with both
needing points to survive. Blackburn will hope for a repeat of their 3-2
success.
Blackburn team news
Blackburn could be without their two most experienced central defenders.
Chris Samba is doubtful with a groin injury while Ryan Nelsen, though
back in training, is still feeling the after-effects of his knee
operation.
New midfield signing Radosav Petrovic is unlikely to have received his visa in time to play.
Wolves team news
Striker Kevin Doyle is winning his battle to be fit. Doyle withdrew
from the Republic of Ireland squad for the midweek international against
Croatia due to a knee injury, but Wolves boss Mick McCarthy believes he
has a "70-30" chance of being available.
New skipper and summer signing Roger Johnson will make his
competitive debut, but midfielders Dave Edwards (back) and Adlene
Guedioura (ankle) miss out.
