The Ipswich Witches are back in Premiership action again tonight as they head to Manchester to take on the Belle Vue Aces.

The Witches were beaten by the Aces at Foxhall on Thursday, a result that leaves them facing a mountain to climb to make the top four.

A trip to the National Speedway Stadium is a daunting one for most with the Manchester side flying high at the top of the table - but Ipswich know they must produce a result on the road urgently to keep any outside play-off ambitions alive.

The Witches were beaten by 20 points on their last visit to Belle Vue earlier in the season with only Emil Sayfutdinov hitting double figures.

The away team are at full strength and field the same riding order as on Thursday.

Witches' promoter Chris Louis said: "We have got to go there and ask the riders as individuals to give 100% and look for solutions to their own problems.

"We have got to work with what we have got and get the best out of what we have got.

"I do feel for Jason (Doyle) and Emil, it’s not just the fact that they are scoring big points, it is the effort they are putting in, it is huge, and they just want to win.

"It is very disappointing for them when we are not winning, and I would like to see us put in a team performance.

"Realistically we can’t expect to win at Belle Vue, but I want us to put in a decent performance.

"It is a difficult track to go to for all teams but then you get teams like Wolverhampton who go there and always put in a decent performance and they have been beaten at home, they are not invincible by any means.

"For us right now of course it is a tough place to go to, they are flying high at the top of the table."
