Sports Mole previews Gianfranco Zola's Watford's home encounter against Ipswich Town on Tuesday night.

Reports have claimed that Watford loanee Matej Vydra will be forced to settle for a place on the bench during tomorrow's visit of Ipswich Town.

Despite scoring the winning goal against Crystal Palace on Saturday afternoon, Vydra is expected to be made to wait for his turn by manager Gianfranco Zola.

Almen Abdi, who also scored against the Eagles, will lead the line for the hosting Hornets, while Fitz Hall could earn a place within the defence following his recovery from injury.

Ipswich boss Paul Jewell is unlikely to make many changes to the side that drew 1-1 with Blackburn Rovers at the weekend.

That would mean that young midfielder Luke Hyam, who impressed against Rovers, will keep his place in the starting lineup for the trip to Vicarage Road.

Watford: Almunia; Dickinson, Taylor, Hall, Doyley; Eustace, Yeates, Hogg, Smith; Abdi, Iwelumo

Ipswich: Loach; Cresswell, Chambers, Smith, Edwards; Emmanuel-Thomas, Martin, Luongo, Hyam, Carson; Chopra

Sports Mole says: 1-1
