Blackburn boss Steve Kean calls on his players to show courage for Tuesday's crunch match against Bolton Wanderers at Ewood Park.

Blackburn Rovers manager Steve Kean has called on his players to show courage in their crunch Premier League match against Bolton Wanderers on Tuesday.

Rovers go into the game at Ewood Park 19th in the table, while Bolton currently sit bottom.

"You want to put points on the board. If Tuesday wasn't big enough it is certainly massive now," Kean said after Saturday's 2-1 defeat to West Bromwich Albion.

"We've got to pick ourselves back up again and show courage and I don't mind challenges and tackles. Courage to get on the ball, courage to make our own chances, not waiting for teams to make mistakes.

"Get on the ball, show some courage, make some nice passes and try to get the ball wide and get in some one-against-one in areas where we know we've got players that can open up the game."

Saturday's defeat to the Baggies marked the Scot's one year anniversary in charge of the club.
