Bolton win would put us where we want to be - Blackburn's Kean

Blackburn Rovers boss Steve Kean insists a win against Bolton tomorrow will put the club just about where they want to be.

The Rovers are currently sitting 16th on the table on 35 points, just one above the drop zone, and the manager feels a victory over the 8th-placed Trotters at Ewood Park would ease a huge amount of pressure.

"A win against Bolton would lift us into a very good position," he said.

"It wouldn't be done and dusted but it would be a massive step forward in taking us a step closer to being where we want to be.''

Midfielder Steven Nzonzi is back in the line-up for Kean following his suspension but the Rovers will be without striker Roque Santa Cruz and David Dunn are out with hamstring and calf injuries respectively.
