Derby vs Ipswich: Team News, Line-Ups, & Form Preview
Derby:
Derby’s position in the play-off positions is under a big doubt thanks to the recent set of poor results. The Rams have ended up losing three out of the last four games, as the team are now coming under pressure from the likes of Peterborough and Wycombe. Derby are just one point ahead of Peterborough coming into the game.
Predicted Line-Up:
Joseph Wildsmith, Jake Rooney, Curtis Davies, Eiran Cashin, Craig Forsyth, Korey Smith, Conor Hourihane, Mendez-Laing, Louie Sibley, Tony Springett, James Collins
Ipswich:
Kieran McKenna will be extremely glad about Ipswich’s recent momentum and results. Furthermore, this good run of form is also aided by Sheffield Wednesday being without a victory in five consecutive league outings. As a result, Ipswich are only three points behind the automatic promotion spots while also having a marginally better goal difference.
Predicted Line-Up:
Christian Walton, Harry Clarke, Luke Woolfenden, Cameron Burgess, Leif Davis, Sam Morsy, Massimo Luongo, Wes Burns, Conor Chaplin, Nathan Broadhead, George Hirst
Player to Watch: George Hirst
George Hirst may not be the top scorer at Ipswich while he has only hit two goals for the campaign. However, the 24-year-old is the player on form right now with goals in back-to-back games. He has not completed 90 minutes of action in his last 10 appearances, but scoring in back-to-back games is likely to give enough confidence to Ipswich boss Kieran McKenna to hand him more starts.
Starting Line-Ups:
Starting lineups are usually released 60 minutes before kick-off.
