Preston take on an Ipswich side tonight who will be coming to Deepdale looking for all 3pts as they push for automatic promotion. The league leaders will be no easy competition and with sky cameras there will northend players freeze once again as so often has this been the case in the past, or will they be up for this clash to really prove themselves and protect this good run.

Northend will be without long term injured Andy Lonergan who suffered a serious injury midweek in training damaging knee ligaments. We will also be without suspended Eddie Lewis after his sending off last weekend, which could see a start for Paul McKenna who made an apperance in our last game even with a broken hand. Eric Skora is still out, but other than that Davies has no more injury worries.

Ipswich's top goalscorer Shefki Kuqi will miss tonight game due to injury, which will see their new signing James Scowcroft start and fears over Dean Bowditch and Kevin Horlock turned out to be unfounded as they to are both included in Ipswich's squad.

Last time Preston and Ipswich met was at Ipswich back in October were Preston saw themselves on the wrong side of a 3-0 defeat.
