Ipswich boss Paul Jewell says he and his players can’t afford to go into games feeling sorry for themselves, despite sitting in 20th place in the Championship and on a run which has seen them win only two of their last 13 matches. The Blues, who are still waiting on defensive target Sean St Ledger,are in action at Birmingham tonight in a match rearranged from earlier in the season due to the Midlanders’ Europa League campaign (KO 7.45pm).
Town have an injury concern regarding full-back David Wright ahead of the Boxing Day home game with Birmingham City. Better news is that Owen Garvan and Ben Thatcher are back from one-match bans.
Two goals in the first 14 minutes scored by Liam Ridgewell and Kevin Phillips all but sealed Birmingham s 2-1 home victory over the Blues at St Andrew s. Town were very much second best throughout with a late Alex Bruce header making the scoreline look closer than it ought to have been.
