Town's hunt for a win away from home moves to another country tomorrow as they travel to Cardiff to take on Cardiff City. Gavin Williams, Billy Clarke and Owen Garvan are all included in the squad but will given late fitness tests before being risked by Town.
Town squad: Alexander, Bruce, Clarke, Counago, De Vos, Garvan, Harding, Haynes, Lee, Legwinski, Miller, Roberts, Supple, Trotter, Walters, Williams, Wilnis, Wright.
Town manager Jim Magilton: "I have great admiration for Dave Jones and I'm sure he will handle the pressure that has been put on him, they are a good side that are having a blip at the moment. It happens in football and they will be desperate to get a good result against us.
"I'm sure their players will be looking to give Dave a lift and I'm expecting a very difficult game.
"Ninian Park is always a tricky place to go and play. The crowd can make it a fantastic atmosphere. They are a passionate support and can inspire players.
"Hopefully it will work that way for my players as well and I know we will be up for the challenge.
"We have hade a decent break but are ready for action again and our thoughts and focus have been concentrated on Cardiff all week."
Robbie Fowler is a slight doubt for the Bluebirds while Ricardo Scimeca is defiantly out.
Cardiff manager Dave Jones: "I am hurting, the players are hurting, that's the way it should be.
"I have the 100 per cent backing of the board and everybody here is fully focused on winning against Ipswich Town tomorrow. It's too easy just to say get rid.
"And anybody who says I should walk away doesn't know me. I have a job to do and I will do everything I can to achieve what we are trying to do.
"The tempo in training is good. Confidence is high. I want them to be positive against Ipswich Town."
The game has been switched to a noon kick-off so it does not clash with the rugby taking place in Cardiff later in the day.
