Bristol City midfielder Bobby Reid is rated 50-50 for Saturday's visit of Blackburn Rovers after suffering a dead leg in Tuesday's 1-0 loss at QPR. Defender Mark Little (hamstring) should be fit for the game at Ashton Gate. Blackburn have no new injury concerns and could name an unchanged squad. But the match is likely to come too soon for Gordon Greer and Danny Graham (both groin), while long-term absentees Elliott Ward (ankle) and Adam Henley (hamstring) remain sidelined.

| - Bristol City midfielder Bobby Reid is rated 50-50 for Saturday's visit of Blackburn Rovers after suffering a dead leg in Tuesday's 1-0 loss at QPR. Defender Mark Little (hamstring) should be fit for the game at Ashton Gate. Blackburn have no new injury concerns and could name an unchanged squad. But the match is likely to come too soon for Gordon Greer and Danny Graham (both groin), while long-term absentees Elliott Ward (ankle) and Adam Henley (hamstring) remain sidelined. Bristol City - who had won four straight games in all competitions before losing at Cardiff on 14 October - will bid to end their run of two consecutive defeats, while Blackburn are aiming for only their second league away win of the season. "Rovers were worthy winners against Nottingham Forest on Tuesday night. It means that they go to Bristol City out of the relegation places, which has to be seen as something to build on. "Owen Coyle may get the opportunity to name an unchanged team. Darragh Lenihan and Tommie Hoban really impressed as a central defensive pairing, although Lenihan is generally seen as a midfielder. On-loan strikers Sam Gallagher and Marvin Emnes are also looking like a good pairing. Rovers would love to sign Hoban, Emnes and Gallagher on permanent deals. "Coyle is convinced that his side are now coming out on the other side of an awful start to the season, though recent results would suggest that Rovers are up and down. If they can get the service to Gallagher and Emnes the way they did on Tuesday, they could be heading for another positive result." "The worst thing about our performance against Cardiff is it probably showed the world how you play against Bristol City and win. "QPR basically copied the style of Cardiff and they beat us as well. We've got to find a way, if a team is set up in that structure, to break them down. "If we want to be in and around where we are now, and above, for the whole season, you are going to face many different challenges and individual tactics."
