Sixto Out! - Ipswich Town News
Sixto Peralta will miss Wednesday's crucial Premiership clash with Leeds at Elland Road. The Argentinian is still not over his thigh problem sustained in Cyprus.
Manager George Burley said: "Sixto still has a problem with his thigh and is definitely out of Wednesday's game at Leeds."
Against Southampton Jim Magilton took the man who likes to be called Mumo's place in a 4-4-2 formation. It looks likely that manager George Burley will field the 5-3-2 formation he has recently preferred in away games at Elland Road, with any three from Matt Holland, Jermaine Wright, Finidi George and Jim Magilton at the centre of the midfield.
