Team News

Brentford
Ipswich
  • Neal Maupay impressed off the bench on Monday afternoon against Bristol City, notching the winner with 10 minutes to go, and the Frenchman could be handed a start here.
  • Ollie Watkins is likely to move out wide after starting up top against the Robins, while Nico Yennaris could be drafted into the midfield.
  • Ryan Woods serves the second instalment of a three-match ban, while injured duo Andreas Bjelland and Rico Henry will also miss out.
  • Mick McCarthy could recall Grant Ward, Luke Hyam and Cameron Carter-Vickers to the starting XI as Ipswich make the trip to West London on Saturday afternoon.
  • Jonas Knudsen could move out of central defence into a more familiar wing-back role, while Mustapha Carayol and Stephen Gleeson are in danger of dropping out.

Prediction

  • Monday afternoon's 1-0 win over Bristol City was a huge result for Dean Smith's Brentford, with the Bees now just five points behind Middlesbrough heading into their final six fixtures.
  • Ipswich's form has nosedived since the revelation that Mick McCarthy will not be handed a new contract at the end of the year, and the Tractor Boys head to Griffin Park look to arrest a five-game winless run.
  • It's likely Brentford will need to win at least four of their last six league games to have any chance of creeping into a play-off place and that has to start with a win here over a confidence-shy Ipswich side.
