Nydam, Bru and Kenlock in U23s Facing West Brom in Premier League Cup - Ipswich Town News

Tristan Nydam, Kevin Bru and Myles Kenlock are all in the Town U23 side facing West Brom in their final Premier League Cup group game at Portman Road this afternoon (KO 2pm).

Also in Gerard Nash’s team are January signings Barry Cotter, Aaron Drinan and Chris Goteni, as well as striker Ben Morris, who was praised by manager Mick McCarthy last week.

Town’s U23s are currently third in their Premier League Cup group and have only a slim chance of reaching the next phase if they win today's match, which was switched to the afternoon a few days ago having initially been scheduled for this evening due to the expected below-freezing temperatures.

They also require Villa to beat Sheffield United in the other fixture - which was set to be played today but has been postponed - as well as a five-goal turnaround.
