Five in Weekend Action - Ipswich Town News

Town have five players in international action this weekend. Keeper Lewis Price will hope to be the first to get into action with the Welsh U21s facing Azerbaijan in Baku this afternoon.

If included in Glyn Hodges's side, Price will win his second cap for the Wales U21 side.

Town have two players in the England U21 squad for this evening's game in Austria. Striker Darren Bent will want to start after scoring as a sub against the Ukraine, his third goal in six appearances.

Midfielder Ian Westlake was on the bench for that game but will hope for some involvement this time around. Matt Richards won his first cap in the Ukraine game but is not in this squad due to his foot injury.

Academy striker Darryl Knights is expected to be in the England U17 side which faces Russia in the Pepsi International Tournament at Gillingham's Priestfield Stadium this evening (KO 8pm).

Summer signing Jason De Vos will captain Canada in their second World Cup qualifier against Honduras in Edmonton on Saturday.

Frank Yallop's side will be hoping to get a win under their belts after losing their semi-final group opener 2-0 to Guatemala.
