Team News

Brentford
Ipswich
  • Alan McCormack is likely to miss out with a suspected heel injury picked up in the League Cup defeat by Exeter. Andreas Bjelland and Yoann Barbet are also sidelined.
  • Full-back Maxime Colin has recovered from a calf strain, while Josh McEachran has shaken off a knock.
  • Alan Judge, who broke his leg in April, is a long-term absentee, while Lasse Vibe is at the Olympics with Denmark.
  • Grant Ward, signed from Tottenham earlier this month, could start after scoring a hat-trick as a substitute in the win over Barnsley last Saturday.
  • Ipswich boss Mick McCarthy will choose between Christophe Berra and Tommy Smith to partner summer signing Adam Webster.
  • Brett Pitman and Luke Hyam and Giles Coke all missed the League Cup defeat by Stevenage.

Prediction

  • Brentford have put in two disappointing performances, losing their opening Championship game to Huddersfield before a rotated side were beaten by Exeter in the League Cup in midweek.
  • Ipswich needed a Grant Ward debut hat-trick to beat Barnsley but were also sub-standard in the League Cup, crashing out to Stevenage.
  • Brentford needed two late goals to get a draw against Ipswich on the opening day of last season - but the Bees could break their duck in this one.
