Yorke misery on Rovers return

Blackburn Rovers FC have suffered a double injury blow ahead of the UEFA Cup tie at PFC CSKA Sofia.

Yorke bar
Yorke is out of Thursday's first round second-leg tie after a recurrence of a hamstring problem in last night's English Premiership win at West Bromwich Albion FC. Flitcroft is expected to join him on the sidelines having damaged his shoulder in the same game.

Level pegging
"It is likely that both will miss the next two games against Sofia and Tottenham [Hotspur FC]," said Blackburn manager Graeme Souness. Blackburn take a 1-1 draw from Ewood Park to Bulgaria.
