Douglas in for Hyam at Bolton - Ipswich Town News
Jonathan Douglas replaces Luke Hyam in central midfield in an otherwise unchanged Town side facing Bolton at the Macron Stadium this evening (KO 8pm).
Hyam drops to the bench, while Cole Skuse (toe ligament) and Daryl Murphy (calf) aren't fit enough to return.
