The midfielder has been in excellent form of late but missed Tuesday’s win over Burton with a ‘strain’. We’ll have a further update this afternoon, but for now here’s the latest from Darren Moore:
“From Saturday he picked up a slight strain. It was possible for him to play tonight, but I didn’t want to risk him… I expect him back in training in the next 24-48 hours, and hopefully he’ll be ok.”
Could we see Paterson rested in the coming weeks?
