🔍 Match Preview & analysis

Ipswich Town (Home)

Ipswich are enjoying a strong Championship campaign and are comfortably placed near the promotion places. Recent form has been impressive with a solid run of results at Portman Road, including multiple wins and consistent attacking output. Their defensive shape is also improving, limiting high-quality chances and keeping clean sheets.

Blackburn Rovers (Away)

Blackburn’s season has been erratic, and they sit in the lower half of the table, struggling for wins and consistency. Away from home their scoring threat is limited, and they often find themselves under sustained pressure. Recent performances highlight their inability to string wins together or convert chances regularly.
