Grant Leadbitter and Jay Emmanuel-Thomas are back in the Town starting line-up for this afternoon’s game at Reading (KO 3pm). Keith Andrews and Jason Scotland miss out due to their hamstring problems.
Andrews tore his hamstring on Monday and won’t play again before his half-season loan spell from Blackburn is up after Monday’s home match with Nottingham Forest with Blues boss Paul Jewell keen to keep him at Portman Road.
Scotland has a more minor problem and could be involved against the Tricky Trees.
The Royals are unchanged from their 3-0 Boxing Day victory over Brighton.
Town: Lee-Barrett, Edwards, Sonko, Delaney, Cresswell, Martin, Leadbitter (c), Bowyer, Murphy, Emmanuel-Thomas, Chopra. Subs: Wright, Wabara, Carson, Bullard, Ellington.
Reading: Federici, Cummings, Griffin, Gorkss, Pearce, Karacan, Leigertwood, Kebe, McAnuff (c), Church, Le Fondre. Subs: Andersen, Harte, Tabb, Robson-Kanu, Hunt.
