📰 Team News: Ipswich Town

It’s our opinion that The Tractor Boys will possibly employ a 4-2-3-1 formation for the game, utilising Vaclav Hladky, Axel Tuanzebe, Luke Woolfenden, Cameron Burgess, Leif Davis, Sam Morsy, Massimo Luongo, Wes Burns, Conor Chaplin, Omari Hutchinson and George Hirst.

📰 Team News: Huddersfield

Huddersfield boss André Breitenreiter has some current player fitness concerns. Ollie Turton (Meniscus injury) and Josh Ruffels (Groin injury) will not be playing here.

We’re of the thinking that The Terriers seem most likely to play in a 3-5-2 formation, choosing Chris Maxwell, Matthew Pearson, Michal Helik, Ben Jackson, Oliver Turton, Ben Wiles, Jack Rudoni, David Kasumu, Thomas Edwards, Danny Ward and Rhys Healey.

🧠 Prediction

In our opinion, Huddersfield Town will surely be able to find the back of the net against this Ipswich Town lineup, although it probably shouldn’t be enough to avoid a loss.

We’re predicting both teams to score in a 2-1 win for Ipswich Town after 90 minutes. Looking forward to seeing how this one unfolds.
