Two teams at the opposite ends of the Championship table meet as Ipswich Town play host to Leicester City at Portman Road on Saturday. The Blues are third in the standings with 63 points, while the Foxes are 22nd at 34 points. Who is likely to come out on top? Check out our prediction below.
Ipswich Town have turned around their fortunes after back-to-back losses derailed their push for a top-two finish. They came into this match on three consecutive victories, including a 1–0 win over Hull City last time out.
That victory saw Kieran McKenna's side close the gap on second-placed Middlesbrough to just three points. Interestingly, the hosts boast a significantly higher goal difference than Middlesbrough and could overtake them to second place with a win on Saturday. They are unbeaten in their last 13 home matches (W10, D3), nine of which ended with over 1.5 goals.
Leicester City suffered a setback in their bid to beat the drop after losing 2–0 at home to Norwich in their last outing. That result extended their winless run in the league to nine matches (D3, L6), all of which ended with over 1.5 goals.
