Sheffield United boss Neil Warnock has injury doubts over midfielder Michael Brown and defender Chris Armstrong ahead of Saturday's visit to Portman Road.

Brown has missed the last three game due to a foot problem and still seems a little way from full fitness.

Warnock says he is more confident that the former Oldham defender will make the trip to Suffolk: "Chris has a slight niggle but we're hopeful.

"Michael still has a bit to do. He is using his foot a lot more now but he's still only sidefooting the ball."

Brown was a key player for the Blades against Town last season, scoring twice in their FA Cup win at Bramall Lane in January.

The former Manchester City player, sold to Sheffield United by Town boss Joe Royle, was also involved in the incident which saw Pablo Couñago sent off in the Blues' 3-2 league win at Portman Road.
