BLACKBURN v Tottenham: Duo back for Rovers
Defenders Brett Emerton and Christopher Samba return to Blackburn's squad for Saturday's Barclays Premier League home clash.
Emerton has been troubled by a groin strain, which has limited him to just 45 minutes of first-team action in the last month, but he returned to full training this week.

Meanwhile, Samba is available again following a one-match ban which ruled him out of Saturday's goalless draw at Reading and joins a full-strength squad as Mark Hughes' side looks to sustain their push for Europe.
