David Murphy fit for Aberdeen game.

Last updated : 19 October 2005 By Steve Forbes

Hibernian Left back, David Murphy, 20 should be ready to face Aberdeen this weekend up at Pittodrie.

Murphy was injured last Friday in a training session, hurting his knee. He then went on fail a fitness test on the Saturday before the 4-2 win over Kilmarnock, Hibs taking the decision not to risk the best left back in the country.

The player has not trained this week, but should travel on Saturday.

It will be good to have Murphy back in the squad following the injury to Whittaker, with Rudge likely to come into the centre of defence, for his first start, alongside Hogg, with Caldwell pushed out to right back.
