TV pundit Mark Lawrenson, the man Wanderers fans love to hate, is predicting a Blackburn Rovers win at the Reebok on Saturday.

He told the BBC Sport website: "There will be no great love lost between these two teams in this Lancashire derby.

"Blackburn had a short spell where the luck seemed to be against them, but they have bolstered their ranks with Hakan Suker and they probably think they have turned the corner with the win against Fulham.

"Bolton had a big loss at Manchester City last week and I think that Rovers will be too strong for them.

"Verdict: Away win."
