    So, another top of the table tussle looms this weekend when we entertain Rovers in front of the Sky cameras.
    They currently sit one place above us in the league, on 36 points to our 35.
    GD is noteworthy, with them on -1 and us on +7.
    Add that to the fact that they've lost 3 of their last 5 and this could be a tight affair.
    Their top scorer is the much lauded Ben Brereton, with 10 so far.
    We have Josh with 9 and Teemu with 7.

    As always, team / suspenjury news and updates from the pre-match presser will follow.
    Meanwhile, get yourselves in the mood by watching a belter from Bradders <ok>
    Regarding streams, sorry to say that both Hesgoal and Freestreams live have been seized and closed down. RIP, and thanks for the memories.

    Team news from the presser:

    Aaron Ramsey (knee). Trained on Thursday. Missed out at Swansea. Dean Smith revealed after the game had picked up issue in Tampa but was back on the grass running and targeting Rovers' visit

    Todd Cantwell. Trained on Thursday. Left out at Swansea to build up his fitness. Smith confirmed no injury issue.

    Marcelino Nunez (hamstring). Trained on Thursday. Missed Swansea after two games for Chile during the pre-World Cup phase.

    Smith indicated on all three above it would late calls for Blackburn.

    Smith said all those on duty at Swansea are available.

    Jonathan Rowe underwent ankle surgery last week. Damaged ligaments out in Tampa. Out for at least two months. Had only returned to training after a long term absence with a shin injury before the World Cup break.

    Sam Byram (hamstring). Final stages of rehab. Missed the Rotherham and Middlesbrough games with some soreness in a tendon in his hamstring.

    Jacob Sorensen (foot) stress fracture. Another in the final stages of rehab. Trained in Tampa but indicated he was still 'weeks away' from being back in contention. Injured in the second half of Norwich City's Championship defeat at Hull City in August.

    Does anyone have any news on possible streams? Obviously I live in Gozo, but before last weekend I had managed to watch every game online except for one Cup game which hesgoal didn't cover. Considering the way we played for most of those matches, it was purgatory, but I'd still prefer to suffer than follow Flashscore. Does anyone have any tips, especially on how to access certain sites that some of us (e.g. Thai) seem to be able to access while others can't (adding an AdBlock didn't help - maybe that's related to the country I live in????).

    Not asking for a friend.
