Boss Mick McCarthy believes Town’s Boxing Day opponents QPR can still be play-off contenders, despite currently sitting in mid-table as the Championship season reaches its halfway point.
Boss Mick McCarthy says he’s been delighted with keeper Bartosz Bialkowski’s performances since he came into the side at Blackpool at the start of November. The Town manager says he has been equally impressed by the way Dean Gerken, whose groin injury led to the Pole getting his chance, has reacted to losing his place.
Cole Skuse and Jonas Knudsen both miss out as Town face leaders Wolverhampton Wanderers at Molineux this afternoon with Kevin Bru and Myles Kenlock both starting.
Ivan Cavaleiro’s 40th minute goal saw Wolves a 1-0 victory over the Blues at Molineux. The Blues contained the Championship leaders until five minutes before the break and despite showing more attacking intent in the second half rarely looked like taking anything from the game.
