Preview: Ipswich Town vs. Cardiff City

Sports Mole previews the Championship clash between Ipswich Town and Cardiff at Portman Road on Saturday.

Cardiff City travel to Ipswich Town on Saturday looking to compound the misery around Portman Road brought on by poor form and Michael Chopra's alleged misdemeanors.

The 28-year-old has been arrested in connection with a race-fixing probe.

Luke Hyam (back) and Paul Taylor (foot) are certain to miss out, but Richie Wellens and DJ Campbell could make their debuts for the Tractor Boys.

Meanwhile, Cardiff have been in excellent form of late, losing just one of their previous five fixtures.

Malky Mackay is expected to name an unchanged lineup from the one that triumphed 3-0 over fellow promotion hopefuls Blackpool.

Current form:

Ipswich: LLLDD
Cardiff: WWWLW

Possible lineups:

Ipswich: Loach; Edwards, Chambers, Higginbotham, Cresswell; N'Daw Luongo, Drury, Emmanuel-Thomas; Scotland, Chopra

Cardiff: Marshall; McNaughton, Taylor, Hudson, Connolly; Whittingham, Cowie, Gunnarsson, Smith; Helguson, Bellamy
