Magilton in Squad - Ipswich Town News
Calf injury doubt Jim Magilton is included in Joe Royle's squad ahead of Saturday's home clash with Preston North End. Magilton picked up the knock at Burnley last week.
The only surprises in the squad are the omissions of Nabil Abidallah and Alun Armstrong. Both were in last week's party which travelled to Turf Moor and seemed likely to be involved this time around too.
Chris Makin and Tommy Miller have overcome earlier injuries and should be in the starting line-up.
Squad: Ambrose, D Bent, M Bent, Couñago, Gaardsøe, Holland, Hreidarsson, Magilton, Makin, Marshall, T Miller, Naylor, Pullen, Reuser, Richards, Wilnis and Wright.
