Team News

Ipswich
Preston
  • Kieran McKenna could make two changes to the side that hammered Hull in midweek with Harry Clarke and Nathan Broadhead both returning to the starting XI.
  • Cameron Burgess and Lee Evans are both doubtful for the Tractor Boys.
  • Ryan Lowe could return to a 3-4-2-1 system this weekend with Patrick Bauer and Will Keane returning to the starting XI.
  • Jordan Storey, Andrew Hughes and Alan Browne all miss out in midweek and are doubtful for the trip to Portman Road.

Prediction

  • Ipswich produced one of the most seamless attacking displays of the Championship season so far on Tuesday night as they cruised to a 3-0 home win against a Hull side who are battling at the top end of the table themselves. Kieran McKenna's side have taken 25 points from a possible 30 thus far and look every bit title contenders.
  • Preston were no match for the attacking might of Leicester in midweek. The Lilywhites kept it tight for an hour but conceded three times in the closing stages as they succumbed to a 3-0 away defeat. After an unexpected unbeaten start to the season, Ryan Lowe's side are now looking to avoid a third successive league defeat.
