West Hamvs.Ipswich

The Tractor Boys, who have drawn each of their last four league matches, have no fresh injury concerns and will assess the fitness of Harry Clarke (Achilles) and Nathan Broadhead (hamstring), who have recently returned to training.

A back four of Axel Tuanzebe, Dara O'Shea, Jacob Greaves and Leif Davis is set to remain intact, with McKenna seemingly preferring Tuanzebe at right-back and O'Shea at centre-back ahead of Ben Johnson and Luke Woolfenden respectively.

Kalvin Phillips, who spent the second half of last season on loan at West Ham, was fit to start and played for almost 70 minutes in Ipswich's 2-2 draw with Aston Villa last weekend, and he is expected to continue in centre-midfield alongside captain Sam Morsey.

McKenna will weigh up whether to hand Jack Clarke another start on the left flank or recall fellow summer signing Sammie Szmodics, while Chiedozie Ogbene should get the nod to start on the right ahead of Wes Burns.

Omari Hutchinson has started all six of Ipswich's Premier League matches this term and is expected to continue in a central role behind striker Liam Delap, who scored a brace against Villa last weekend.

Ipswich Town possible starting lineup: Muric; Tuanzebe, O'Shea, Greaves, Davis; Morsy, Phillips; Ogbene, Hutchinson, Szmodics; Delap
