News about the Ipswich Town team:
The player is expected to miss the match against Hull City
The Tractor Boys have been extremely impressive throughout the season, with their only defeat of the season so far being a 4-3 loss to Leeds United.
Given that the White Devils were recently relegated from the Premier League, Ipswich should not blame themselves for this result but should instead focus on the positives.
They will be in high spirits going into this clash, not just because of the final result but also because they grabbed a late equalizer against Huddersfield Town on Saturday.
On paper, the 1-1 draw at the John Smith’s Stadium wasn’t their most impressive result of the season, but the points they picked up against West Yorkshire could be crucial in their potential bid to secure promotion. consecutive.
They face a tough test tonight when Hull travel to Suffolk, looking for three points after showing promise in the early stages of the season. Before this match, let’s take a look at the Tractor Boys’ missing players.
Lee Evans is Kieran McKenna’s “main” concern ahead of this clash, with the midfielder forced off with a knee problem against Huddersfield at the weekend.
Given that he had a scan yesterday, he will most likely miss this match.
He may not be the only Tractor Boys player missing, with Nathan Broadhead now a doubt for his game after missing the game against the Terriers with a thigh injury.
Meanwhile, Christian Walton and Axel Tuanzebe are in good form but it remains to be seen whether McKenna feels ready enough to join the matchday squad. Vaclav Hladky will feel he deserves a restart between the sticks and it would be no surprise to see him retain his place, with Leif Davis, Cameron Burgess, Luke Woolfenden and Harry Clarke up front shooter.
However, Brandon Williams will start at first base and he will likely excel at both ends.
The Tractor Boys having Davis at their disposal at John Smith Stadium is a huge positive for them, but it remains to be seen whether they want to start him again.
With Evans likely to be sidelined, this provides the perfect opportunity for Sam Morsy to return from suspension and team-mate Massimo Luongo in the middle of the park.
And with Broadhead also a doubt, Omari Hutchinson is likely to continue on the left alongside Conor Chaplin and Wes Burns. Chaplin’s position as number 10 is a real weapon for Ipswich as he can be a valuable asset in the final third when he is at his best.
At the top, George Hirst starts at Huddersfield and it wouldn’t be a shock to see him start again, although Freddie Ladapo will push for a starting spot.
Currently there is only room for one player at the front.
