News: Dunn missed the 5-0 defeat to Chelsea last weekend with virus-like symptoms and it is thought that the midfield player might have been struck down by swine flu.
Analysis: Is unlikely to play against Peterborough United in the Carling Cup on Tuesday night, if the tie goes ahead.
|
News: Dunn scored the penalty which snared Blackburn all three points against Aston Villa last weekend.
Analysis: The midfield player has been increasingly influential for Sam Allardyce's side.
|
News: Back-to-back man of the match performances and two goals for Blackburn already this season suggest that Dunn has finally put his poor injury record behind him.
Analysis: The midfield player has been relishing an advanced role behind Jason Roberts. "I've been picking little niggles up for a while, but I've worked hard with the physios and the fitness coaches and so far so good," he said.
|
News: Made his seasonal debut, scored a goal and was instrumental in Blackburn's 3-1 victory over Gillingham on Tuesday, before being substituted in the 59th minute.
Analysis: Sam Allardyce will wrap the injury-prone playmaker in cotton wool. "He was moaning about being taken off, but we have to protect him," the manager said.
|
News: Dunn - never the most hardy of players - has a hamstring strain which leaves him doubtful for the start of the season.
Analysis: A risk, given his patchy record with injuries.
