Ipswich Town, Recent FormIpswich Town will be very happy having secured 3 points in their last match with a significant 1-0 away win against Southampton. Their share of possession in that meeting was 41%, while racking up 11 shots along the way, 3 of which were on target, in contrast to Southampton, who had 13 shots on goal with 3 on target.
Manager Kieran McKenna will be reasonably pleased with his team's performances in front of goal, having scored 11 goals in their last 6 games, but will want to tighten up his defence with 6 goals conceded in the same period. Their goal scoring streak now stands at 22 games in a row, and they've kept a clean sheet in 4 of their last 6 matches.
They have had an excellent run of form recently, winning 5 out of their last 6 games.
When it comes to home matches at Portman Road, Conor Chaplin will be feeling confident about finding the net again, with 6 league goals for Ipswich Town in their last 6 home games.
Blackburn Rovers, Recent FormFailing to acquire any points in their 3-1 home defeat by Sunderland will have left the Blackburn Rovers squad feeling a little deflated. In that game they had 58% possession and managed 22 attempts on goal, with 6 on target, compared to Sunderland who had 13 attempts and 4 on target.
Jon Dahl Tomasson will be quite satisfied with his squad's offensive prowess in recent performances. They have managed to notch up 7 goals from their last 6 outings. However, the manager will know they have work to do at the back where they have let in 11 goals and, as a result, lost some important points. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 games but failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of those games.
This will be regarded as a poor run of form, with 3 defeats from their last 6 matches and just 2 victories.
Sammie Szmodics will be aiming to add his name to the scoresheet again to extend his goal tally of 4 goals in the last 6 league outings for Blackburn Rovers.
Blackburn Rovers recorded a 2-0 win last time these two sides went head to head in the league.
Ipswich have scored in each of their last 7 games at home in the league against The Riversiders.
Blackburn has had a poor run in this fixture when they visit Ipswich, being unable to find a win from any of their last 8 league meetings at Portman Road.
Ipswich manager Kieran McKenna has some team selection issues to consider ahead of this match. Leif Davis (Ankle), Janoi Donacien (Groin), Christian Walton (Ankle) and Brandon Williams (Unknown) are all currently out of contention for this game.
With only Niall Ennis (Knee) and Arnór Sigurðsson (Leg) the main fitness concerns ahead of this fixture, Jon Dahl Tomasson will be happy to have an otherwise healthy squad to pick from.
