Bad start for the Hammers. Having got 3 points so far their position in the standings can't be so bad, but they've been below expectations in both their matches so far. Looked good in the first half against Wigan, but then got pressed by Latics in the second half and having watched it got reasons to say a draw would have been fairer. It looked like it was a simple bad start, but they were outplayed yet again when they went to City a week ago. The Rovers instead are known for their great football on the road, they were on the same foot with Everton in the opening round, the 1-1 draw against Hull is not really important as they play better away from home, and I've been noticed that last season and not much has changed.
West Ham: Craig Bellamy (att/-//-) is doubt, Kieron Dyer (mid/-//-), Jonathan Spector (def/-//-), Danny Gabbidon (def/-//-), James Tompkins (def/-//-), James Collins (def/-//) are out
Blackburn: David Dunn (def/reg) is out
