Strong U23s Side Facing Crewe - Ipswich Town News
Town will field a strong U23s side in this evening’s U23s game against Crewe Alexandra at Portman Road (KO 7pm).
Freddie Sears, Brett Pitman, Danny Rowe (pictured), who made his first-team debut as a sub at Cardiff on Saturday, Myles Kenlock and Josh Emmanuel could all be involved.
Jonny Williams may also be in line for a game having suffered a minor hamstring problem in his first U23s match following his shoulder injury a fortnight ago.
Speaking last week, manager Mick McCarthy said he expected defender Steven Taylor to play as he continued his recovery from his hamstring injury.
