Reid should be fit for Rovers

Blackburn midfielder Steven Reid should return to the side for the UEFA Cup first-round first leg tie with Red Bull Salzburg today.

After missing Saturday's goalless draw at Sheffield United with a back problem, Reid travelled to Austria for the game at the Bulls Arena as part of a 20-man squad.

Alongside centre-back Ryan Nelsen who was yesterday confirmed as being out until Christmas following a hamstring operation, boss Mark Hughes' main absentee is striker Jason Roberts with a groin injury.

Team (from): Friedel, Neill, Khizanishvili, Todd, Tugay, Emerton, Savage, Bentley, Nonda, McCarthy, Pedersen, Reid, Mokoena, Jeffers, Gallagher, Ooijer, Brown, Gray, Peter, McEveley.
