Town boss Mick McCarthy has made three changes to his team for this evening’s crucial live Sky game at home to Championship leaders AFC Bournemouth (KO 5.15pm).

New loanee Zeki Fryers makes his debut at left-back for the suspended Tyrone Mings, while Teddy Bishop comes into the middle of midfield for Kevin Bru, who misses out with a calf problem.

Freddie Sears starts up front alongside 23-goal Championship top scorer Daryl Murphy with David McGoldrick and Jonny Williams both on the bench. Luke Varney looks set to start on the right of a four-man midfield.

For Bournemouth, top scorer Callum Wilson starts up front despite manager Eddie Howe having said he expected him to miss the Easter games.

Town: Bialkowski, Chambers, Smith, Berra, Fryers, Skuse, Tabb, Bishop, Varney, Murphy, Sears. Subs: Gerken, Clarke, Chaplow, Anderson, Williams, Wood, McGoldrick.

AFC Bournemouth: Boruc, Francis, Cook, Elphick, Daniels, Ritchie, Surman, Arter, Fraser, Pitman, Wilson. Subs: Camp, Ward, Smith, Gosling, MacDonald, Kermorgant, Jones. Referee: Robert Madley (West Yorkshire).
