Town boss Mick McCarthy has made two changes to the team which lost 2-0 at Brentford for this evening’s game against his old club Wolves at Molineux with Teddy Bishop and Jonathan Douglas coming into the side for Kevin Bru, who drops to the bench, and the injured Conor Grant.

The Blues look set to line-up in a 4-3-3 formation with Freddie Sears and Grant Ward either side of Daryl Murphy up front, while Bishop is likely to start ahead of Cole Skuse and Douglas in midfield.

Luke Varney is on the bench for the first time since rejoining the club for a third spell.

Town: Bialkowski, Chambers (c), Webster, Berra, Knudsen, Skuse, Douglas, Bishop, Ward, Sears, Murphy. Subs: Gerken, Smith, Emmanuel, Kenlock, Dozzell, Bru, Varney.

Wolves: Ikeme, Iorfa, Batth (c), Hause, Doherty, Coady, Edwards, Evans, Mason, Bodvarsson, Teixeira. Subs: Lonergan, Henry, Saville, Wallace, Costa, Price, Deslandes. Referee: Peter Bankes (Liverpool).

sgtlargent added 20:07 - Aug 16 The skuse Douglas partnership, fantastic. Although not sure what other options? Bru has been woeful for sometime now and is cut so much slack purely because he's foreign and looks like he should be decent.

pup12 added 20:14 - Aug 16 As I feared Skluse /Douglas in the middle,set us up to be hard to break down!!I know we are away but ffs can we not try and take a game to someone?!Why match Wolves let them match us?! I'd rather have a proactive manager than a reactive one!!! Earlier posts spot on about full backs,the young lads were better when they played better than Knudsen and chambers .Why can MM not see this.Trying to players until they find there form can only be done for so long.Chambers not a right back and as mentioned by others not much better at centre half on evidence of few games he played his proffered positoin .So what needs to happen give youth a chance ,invest.Something needs doing and quick.Squad needs to be freshened up.Blue till I die but please stop making it so hard to keep the faith,we need some green shoots MM that you can see what we can.coyb
