Ipswich Town fans will get their first opportunity to run the rule over the Championship side's two new-signings at Portman Road tomorrow.

Kevin Horlock and Jason De Vos have both been named in the 17-man squad to face Crystal Palace (12pm kick-off).

Northern Ireland international Horlock has recovered from a rib injury which saw him miss Town's 5-1 victory at Oxford United on Tuesday.

Defender Scott Barron has also been included in the squad having been promoted from the reserves' set-up.

Georges Santos will miss the Blues' first pre-season friendly at home having sustained a nose injury in Town's second-string's 2-1 defeat at Barnet on Wednesday night.

Dutchman Fabian Wilnis also faces a race against time to be fit after pulling a muscle in his back earlier in the week.
