Rovers look for Matt finish

Four of Derbyshire's seven goals for Rovers this season have come in the world-famous cup competition, helping to set up a semi-final showdown with Chelsea at Old Trafford on Sunday.
"We are playing in the semi-finals and the winners go into the final and play at the new Wembley, so if we can get through, that would be a dream come true for all the boys," Derbyshire told the Lancashire Telegraph.
"It would be amazing, and that's in everyone's mind at the moment, but we've got to overcome Chelsea first, and if we do that then we are there."
After starting the last eight games for Rovers, it is more than likely Derbyshire will again partner Benni McCarthy in attack.
However, he is taking nothing for granted as the mere experience of being involved in an FA Cup semi-final means so much.
"I'm looking forward to being part of the squad," added Derbyshire, who scored at Old Trafford just two weeks ago, only for Blackburn to end up losing 4-1 to Manchester United in the Premiership.
"Hopefully I can get a start, or maybe come on at some stage and try to get us a goal."
