Town boss Paul Jewell has made one change to his side for this season’s Championship opener against Blackburn at Portman Road. Josh Carson comes in for Jason Scotland, who drops to the bench.

That change is likely to see the Blues move to their 4-2-3-1 formation with Carson on the left and Lee Martin behind lone striker Michael Chopra. Full match preview here.

Town: Loach, Edwards, Chambers, Smith, Cresswell, Hyam, Luongo, Emmanuel-Thomas, Martin, Carson, Chopra. Subs: Lee-Barrett, Ainsley, Delaney, Stevenson, Drury, Murray, Scotland.

Blackburn: Robinson, Orr, Givet, Lowe, Formica, Pedersen, Murphy, Dann, Etuhu, Gomes, Kazim-Richards. Subs: Kean, Dunn, Olsson, Jorge, Goodwillie, Hanley, Ribeiro.
