Makin Improving - Ipswich Town News

George Burley says Chris Makin's injury has improved and that he should well be fit for tonight's match with Leeds at Elland Road. Makin injured his ankle on Saturday and had looked almost certain to miss out this evening.

The Town boss said: "Chris took another knock on it against Southampton. But he is much improved and I expect him to play."

Burley added: "We know we let ourselves down badly on Saturday. We've worked hard on many aspects since then and are looking forward to the challenge tonight."
