Loanee rated as 50/50 with an ankle problem

Striker Uche Ikpeazu is a doubt to face league leaders Brentford tomorrow with an ankle injury. The Watford loanee, who scored two goals on his full league debut at Bradford last weekend, came out of training yesterday and will miss training today as he looks to recover from his injury.

Boss Steve Davis hasn’t ruled out Ikpeazu all together though and says they will assess the forward ahead of the game tomorrow.

Steve told crewealex.net: “We have had to be careful with Uche this week. He trained yesterday but came out of the session because he was feeling his ankle a little bit.

“There is a doubt about him so we will see how he is tomorrow. He won’t train today because we won’t want to risk him but we will assess the situation tomorrow.”
