Meanwhile, Rovers are unbeaten in three games and now have a new man at the helm in former player Henning Berg.

The Norwegian was unveiled as Steve Kean's replacement yesterday, tasked with returning Rovers to the Premier League at the first attempt.

Recent form:

Crystal Palace: WWDDW

Blackburn:DLDWW

Possible lineups:

Crystal Palace: Speroni; Ward, Delaney, Ramage, Parr; Bolasie, Dikgacoi, Garvan, Jedinak, Zaha; Murray
