Blackburn Rovers boss Paul Lambert is sweating on the fitness of Nigeria international Hope Akpan ahead of tonight&rsquo;s Championship clash against Fulham.<br /><br />The defensive midfielder was not involved in last weekend&rsquo;s game against Hull City as a result of illness and is doubtful to face the Londoners as well as Hanley and Graham.<br /><br />&ldquo;We&rsquo;ll have to wait until the last minute to see how they are. Hope trained this morning after his bug, and we&rsquo;ll see how Danny and Grant are tomorrow,&rdquo; Lambert told Blackburn official website on Monday.<br /><br />&ldquo;They did little bits this morning so we&rsquo;ll give them every chance to see.&rdquo;<br /><br />Akpan has featured 25 times in the second - tier and was on target against Sheffield Wednesday (November 28) and Queens Park Rangers(January 12).<br /><br />Photo Credit : rovers.co.uk<br />
