The visiting Leeds United side should be favourites in this visit to Ipswich Town, as the away team holds a 55 point advantage from their 45 league games this season.

This should be an interesting game with lots of spark and energy as both teams are well rested since they last saw competitive action. Game on!

Ipswich Town form and stats

With 2 wins, 11 draws and 9 defeats from their home games, Ipswich Town are certainly not brimming with confidence. With eight home games in a row without a win, the Ipswich Town fans could feel they are not getting value for their money. It remains to be seen whether this unfortunate streak, which started after the Rotherham United game long ago, can be stopped today. With three straight defeats the pressure is piling up on Ipswich Town to get some points in this home game.

In their previous game, the manager P. Lambert led his Ipswich Town to a defeat in the Championship match away at Sheffield United. The manager is hoping to put things right immediately here at Portman Road Stadium. Ahead of that match, Ipswich Town lost 0-1 at home to Swansea City.

Ipswich Town have scored 19 goals here in 22 matches, not a lot. Ipswich Town's goalkeeper has had to pick the ball out of their own net 29 times. For more goal stats, check the Statistics tab above.
