Fernando Forestieri made his first appearance of the season from the substitutes bench in the defeat at Chelsea last weekend and could be on the bench once again. Michael Hector is likely to return having been ineligable to play against his parent club last weekend.
Ipswich brought in James Bree on loan from Aston Villa on Thursday and the defender could be in line to make his debut for the Tractor Boys. Emyr Huws is the home sides only major injury absentee as he continues to recover from a long term knee injury.
