SPANISH sensation Ruben Rochina makes his full Premier League debut this afternoon as Blackburn Rovers look to end a nine match winless run.

The former Barcelona striker starts just behind lone striker Roque Santa Cruz as one of three changes made for this afternoon's trip to Everton.

Gael Givet returns to the side at left back in place of the injured Ryan Nelsen, while Morten Gamst Pedersen drops out of the side to be replaced by Brett Emerton.

Winger Junior Hoilett has not made it after struggling with a tight hamstring all week.
