Sam Allardyce has made two changes from the side that played against Birmingham City last weekend.
Following on from his hat-trick performance against Norwich City in midweek, Mame Biram Diouf makes his first Premier League start, getting the nod ahead of Martin Olsson who drops to the bench.
The other change sees another player to come through the Carling Cup match, Vince Grella, return to the starting line-up, he is preferred in the centre of midfield to Steven Nzonzi.
Rovers are expected to form a 4-3-3 formation with El-Hadji Diouf, Nikola Kalinic and Mame Biram Diouf forming a front three.
