Tyrone Mings replaces Aaron Cresswell in an otherwise unchanged side as the Blues take on Doncaster Rovers at Portman Road.
Cresswell was considered a doubt with the groin injury which forced him off during the second half of Tuesday’s 2-0 win at Huddersfield, although was expected to be OK to take his regular place at left-back. The Liverpudlian's absence ends a run of 25 successive league games with an unchanged back four.
Rovers include one-time Town targets James Coppinger and Billy Sharp, and former trialist Abdoulaye Meite. Another former Blues trialist Bongani Khumalo and ex-loanee Richie Wellens miss out due to knee and foot injuries respectively.
