preview
Pablo Counago will not be available for the game due to the conditions of the loan agreement with his parent club and recent loan signing Gavin Mahon is still working on his fitness after a long injury lay-off. Alex Marrow and David Wright have been ruled out through injury but Neil Danns has recovered from the knock which saw him withdrawn early on Saturday. Whilst the Eagles are undefeated at home under Dougie Freedman, the Scot has yet to guide his charges to victory on the road, with Palace’s only away victory of the season coming last October against promotion-chasing Norwich City.
Freedman is confident of an away victory, either against Ipswich or against Leicester on Tuesday, and has virtually a full-strength squad to choose from.Crystal Palace, fresh off a 2-1 home victory against Barnsley, travel to Suffolk to take on Ipswich Town, with full-back Nathaniel Clyne set to make his 100th appearance for Palace. Manager Dougie Freedman paid tribute to the Stockwell-born youngster this week with comparisons to former Eagles Ben Watson and Wayne Routledge, hoping that this young player can fulfill his potential in the red and blue.
Most recently, the Blues travelled to Burnley, coming away with a 2-1 win despite a poor second half performance. They have no injury problems ahead of Palace’s visit and Kieron Dyer is set to play the final game of his loan spell from West Ham.Given the Tractor Boys’ reputation for talented youth players, Connor Wickham is undoubtedly at the centre of Ipswich’s resurgence under former Wigan manager Jewell, winning Championship Player of the Month for March and scoring seven goals in the last fifteen games.
The England under-17 star is chased by some of the biggest club in England but the young striker remains focused on helping Town into the Premier League and gaining a place in Stuart Pearce’s squad for this summer’s UEFA Under-21 Championship.
Ipswich have improved under new manager Paul Jewell but still find themselves plagued by inconsistency especially at Portman Road, where they have lost three of their last four.
