Andi Weimann has trained all week for Bristol City and looks set to come back into contention for Saturday’s Championship trip to Preston North End.
Weimann has missed the last four games in league and cup with a hamstring injury and Pearson recently earmarked this weekend as a potential return date for the Austrian international, who has four goals and four assists this season.
The City manager has confirmed that the 31-year-old has been active at the High Performance Centre and although not fully rubber-stamping his return, given Weimann’s importance to the team at the very least he’ll be on the bench at Deepdale.
