Defender Bradley Orr will miss Blackburn's last game in the Premier League against Chelsea at Stamford Bridge.

Orr is ruled out after having surgery on his Achilles tendon, while boss Steve Kean rates goalkeeper Paul Robinson as "touch and go" to play because of an ankle injury. Midfielder David Dunn is a doubt as well after limping off in the first half of Monday's clash with Wigan, a 1-0 defeat which condemned Rovers to the drop. Defender Gael Givet also had to be substituted in that match and the club have been unwilling to confirm the nature of the problem, but Kean says that a specialist has given the all-clear for the Frenchman to play against the Blues.
