Dahl Tomasson hinted that Gallagher’s injury is not a major concern but it remains to be seen exactly how severe Ayala’s setback is.
Talking about the injured duo after the win, the Blackburn boss told The Lancashire Telegraph: “Sam is better than last week but in the break with his injury he wasn’t to do anything. He’s not ready to play 90 minutes at the moment. Ayala he twisted ankle so let’s see how it is tomorrow.”
