Wes Burns out, 4-2-3-1: The predicted Ipswich Town XI to face Rotherham
FLW predicts the Ipswich side that could line up against Rotherham United this weekend.
Ipswich Town could go top of the Championship with a win over Rotherham United, showing their intention to compete this season.
Vaclav Hladky is likely to start in goal for Ipswich, having kept five clean sheets in 11 league matches so far.
With Wes Burns injured, Marcus Harness could replace him on the right side, while Nathan Broadhead is expected to continue on the left. George Hirst is the top option to lead the line.
Ipswich Town could be sitting top of the Championship on Saturday morning.
The Tractor Boys face Rotherham United in league action on Friday night, and a win over the Millers would take them one point clear of Leicester City.
Of course, Leicester would have a game in hand, but it would be a nice reward for Kieran McKenna and his side, and a real indication that they mean business this season.
With Rotherham sitting 23rd and with just one win to their name this campaign, too, Ipswich will really fancy their chances of taking all three points.
With that said, below, we’ve predicted the Ipswich starting XI that we think Kieran McKenna could select for Friday night’s fixture.
With Wes Burns looking as though he is set to miss out with injury, perhaps the biggest decision to be made is who comes in for him on that right-hand side.
