Blackburn expect striker Jason Roberts to be fit to face leaders Manchester United in the Premier League on Saturday.

The striker had been the club's only serious injury doubt with a groin strain ahead of the sell-out Ewood Park clash.

Midfielder David Dunn is fit after overcoming a knee problem to feature as a second-half substitute in last week's defeat at Liverpool.

Otherwise, manager Mark Hughes reported some "bumps and bruises and people not 100 per cent" but was generally "pleased enough with the fitness of the squad".

Manchester United (from):

Nemanja Vidic and Nani are both back in the Manchester United squad.

Vidic has missed three games since injuring his knee against Roma, while Nani has been out with a thigh problem picked up against Liverpool at Old Trafford last month.

Manager Sir Alex Ferguson is hopeful Owen Hargreaves and Anderson will shake off minor knocks but Louis Saha's season could be over after the injury-plagued Frenchman suffered another hamstring strain.
