BLACKBURN ROVERS - BAYER LEVERKUSEN


Rovers are expecting a big crowd tonight, they have slashed admission prices and with the early kick off, the ground will be full of school children. I thought it was illegal to be cruel to minors!


Anyway, Mark Hughes' team are very motivated to progress in the competition and will be boosted by the return of Morten Gamst Pedersen, who returns after a ban and the fit again, Tugay and Benni McCarthy.


Leverkusen bring a 3-2 lead with them, but are in poor form. They are without a win in 4 Bundesliga starts, during which they have conceded 8 goals.


Bayer have struggled to keep a clean sheet all season, with just 3 in 31 matches. In away UEFA Cup trips to Sion, Club Brugge and Dinamo Bucharest, they have yet to post a win and Rovers must be considered superior, to all of those. Home win.


4 points Blackburn -1/2 ball asian line 2.04.


Good Luck.
