Toto Nsiala returns to the starting line-up for this afternoon’s home game against Bolton Wanderers following his three-match ban for his red card at Sheffield Wednesday.
Town recorded their fifth successive home draw at the start of the season as Bolton Wanderers left Portman Road following a hard-fought 0-0 stalemate, despite having been a man down for 47 minutes. The Trotters lost Marc Wilson to a red card on 34 after he hauled down Kayden Jackson but the Blues only created one serious chance - a Luke Chambers header brilliantly saved by Ben Alnwick - having been reduced to 10 men themselves late on when Jon Walters suffered an injury with all three substitutions already having been made.
The record books show that Paul Anderson has already opened his scoring account for Town, despite the match reports on the day suggesting the final goal in the 3-0 home win over Millwall last month was an own goal by Lions’ defender Mark Beevers.
David McGoldrick netted his second goal of the season in first-half injury time to give the Blues a 1-0 lead against Millwall at half-tie at Portman Road.
Manager Mick McCarthy says he wishes former Blue Lee Martin well for his future despite feeling that it was better for the 26-year-old to move on during the summer. Martin left Portman Road after four years at the end of last season, subsequently joining today’s opponents Millwall on a one-year deal.
