U21s Face Huddersfield - Ipswich Town News
Town’s U21s are in action against Huddersfield at Playford Road this afternoon (KO 1pm).
Coach Mark Kennedy is likely to field a young side with the first team in action at Wigan this evening.
The U21s have made a positive start to 2014/15 and are second in the Professional Development League Two South table, a point behind QPR who have played a game more. They have already matched last season’s total of three league victories.
The Terriers, whose second string have lost their last two games, could include senior pair Martin Paterson and Anthony Gerrard, who are on the way back from knee and calf injuries respectively.
