Kean hopes research pays off

Blackburn boss Steve Kean claims he has identified weakness in the Tottenham side that Rovers can exploit on Sunday as they look to conjure up an unlikely escape from relegation.

Kean hopes Rovers can take advantage of Tottenham's recent slump in form - which he believes could be due in part to the speculation surrounding Spurs manager Harry Redknapp and the vacant England manager's job.

Speaking ahead of Sunday's game at White Hart Lane, the Blackburn manager said: "We have done our work and have decided how we want to go about the game tactically and a couple of things we can exploit in certain areas of the pitch against Tottenham. We know the prize at the end of the season for us is massive."
