4th position in the League One table for Ipswich Town so far, a good performance. The home supporters hope for more joy as 14th-placed Gillingham visits Portman Road Stadium.
It's no vacation for neither Ipswich Town nor Gillingham as both were in action only a few days ago. Expect some tired legs on the pitch and/or possibly some changes to the lineups.
Ipswich Town form and stats
As mentioned below, Ipswich Town are feasting on a winning streak here so far with maximum points from their first 3 League One games.
