PREVIEW: Ipswich Town vs Norwich City

The East Anglian derby returns this weekend, as Alex Neil's Norwich City visit Mick McCarthy's Ipswich Town in Sunday's clash at Portman Road.

City were relegated from the Premier League at the end of last season, and have claimed two wins and a draw in their opening three outings.

Town, in comparison, have collected varying results in their opening three games, a win, draw and defeat.

But the relegated Premiership side will appear to be favourites going into the match, having never lost to Ipswich in the past six derby clashes.

The most recent encounter came at the conclusion of the 2014-15 season, when the Canaries defeated the Blues 4-2 in the play-offs.

Striker Brett Pitman may return, although Conor Grant will miss the derby for the hosts. Jacob Murphy could return for the visitors.
