Default Hatchling upside down/or on its side in shell

Hi Guys,
I have a clutch of eggs that have started to hatch. I candled them again last night and one of the eggs looked different, as in there wasn't a space at the top of the egg. I shone the torch in from the side and it I could see in. I picked the egg up and candled from underneath and I could see the baby was nearly upside down/ or on its side.. I placed it back in the incubator the way it's been sitting all through incubation..
But do I need to turn the egg so the baby is sitting the correct way or shall I leave it till it pips? Or will it pip? Or will it die like this?
