Bru, Bishop and Berra Set to Return - Ipswich Town News
Town boss Mick McCarthy hopes to have midfielders Kevin Bru and Teddy Bishop available for Saturday’s home game against Leeds United, while Christophe Berra will be back from his one-match ban.
Bru missed the trip to Charlton with an ankle ligament injury sustained at Bournemouth the previous week, while Bishop was suffering from a hip flexor problem.
Central defender Berra missed the visit to the Valley having reached five bookings for the season with the Blues back four keeping a clean sheet in his absence.
"That does give me a selection headache but they are the problems I like!” McCarthy admitted to the club site.
