Richards a Doubt - Ipswich Town News

Full-back Matt Richards looks unlikely to return to the Town line-up for Monday's visit by Wolverhampton Wanderers. Richards has missed the Blues' last three games due to a wound on his foot.

Wolves will not be able to field new South Korean striker Ki-Hyeon Seol as he is yet to receive international clearance.

Dave Jones has extensive injury problems with Matt Murray, George Ndah, Carl Cort, Dean Sturridge, Joachim Bjorklund, Mark Kennedy and Viorel Ganea all on the sidelines.

Monday's referee is Phil Crossley from Bromley who has shown nine yellow cards and no red in four games this season.

Last year Crossley refereed Town's 1-0 Carling Cup win against Kidderminster and the 3-0 FA Cup victory over Derby.

Squad: Barron, Bent, Bowditch, Couñago, Davis, Diallo, De Vos, Dinning, Horlock, Kuqi, Magilton, Miller, Mitchell, Naylor, Price, Westlake and Wilnis.
