Burton sweating on injured trio for Millwall clash
Posted Friday, February 23, 2018 by PA
Burton will give late fitness tests to Jake Buxton, Luke Murphy and Marvin Sordell ahead of Saturday’s Sky Bet Championship game with Millwall.
Defender Buxton suffered a knock after coming on as a substitute at Barnsley in midweek, while midfielder Murphy (shin and ankle) and forward Sordell (toe) have both been absent recently.
Brewers defenders John Brayford, Ben Turner and Tom Flanagan (all calf) remain sidelined.
Strikers Darren Bent and Liam Boyce will continue to be available to Albion manager Nigel Clough as they each work their way back to full fitness.
Millwall manager Neil Harris is expected to retain the same XI that has secured successive victories.
Aiden O’Brien is back in training following an ankle injury, but this weekend’s fixture will come too soon.
Byron Webster is therefore Harris’ only absentee, with a knee injury that means he will miss the remainder of the season.
Should the manager wish to make changes, Fred Onyedinma is among those pushing to start.
