BEES return to Elite League action on Thursday Ipswich - a venue where they were beaten in a last-heat decider earlier in the season.

Since then, Coventry asset Rory Schlein has switched sides and was in Witches colours for the thrilling 45-45 draw between the clubs at Brandon on Bank Holiday Monday.

Ben Barker continues at reserve for the Bees, who will check on the fitness of Olly Allen this morning and would need to book a guest should he be ruled out, as they are already using rider replacement for Simon Stead.

IPSWICH: Piotr Swiderski, Tobias Kroner, Jarek Hampel, Robert Miskowiak, Rory Schlein, Steve Johnston, Chris Schramm.

BUILDBASE BEES: Hans Andersen, Simon Stead R/R, Chris Harris, Billy Janniro, Olly Allen (TBC), Ben Barker, Filip Sitera.
