Sports Mole previews Ipswich Town's visit to high-flying Leicester City.

Mick McCarthy's Ipswich Town go into this weekend's Championship clash at Leicester City knowing that a win could take the out of the bottom three.

The visitors could draft in loan defender Bradley Orr, who joined the club from Blackburn Rovers this week, but goalkeeper Scott Loach faces a late fitness test.

High-flying Leicester, who drew 2-2 with Nottingham Forest last weekend, can move up to fourth place in the table with a win over Ipswich providing other results go their way.

Manger boss Nigel Pearson hopes to have David Nugent, Paul Konchesky and Jamie Vardy back available as the Foxes bid to end a run of four games without a win.

Richie Wellens could also be recalled to the side after completing a month-long loan spell with Ipswich.

Recent form:

Leicester: DWLLDD

Ipswich: LLLWLW

Possible lineups:

Leicester: Schmeichel; De Laet, Morgan, Keane, Konchesky; Knockaert, Drinkwater, King, Dyer; Nugent, Waghorn

Ipswich: Henderson; Cresswell, Chambers, Higginbotham, Smith; Edwards, N'daw, Wellens, Reo-Coker; Campbell, Murphy

Sports Mole says: 2-0
