Naylor a Doubt - Ipswich Town News
Richard Naylor is a doubt for Tuesday's trip to Stoke City after sustaining a toe injury during Saturday's 1-0 FA Cup victory over Swansea. Naylor, skippering the side in the absence of Jason De Vos, left the ground on crutches.
Town's longest-serving player will undergo an x-ray and told the club site: "If it's broken then obviously I will be out of the game. If it's not broken then I might be OK.
"I caught the player as I cleared and it felt uncomfortable straight away, but we'll know how bad it is after the scan."
The Blues will have David Wright available after a one-match ban but Alex Bruce will serve the second game of his suspension at the Britannia Stadium. Jason De Vos is also out with his cracked metatarsal.
