Ipswich Town, Recent FormLast time out, Ipswich Town recorded an impressive 3-0 home win against Hull City. They achieved 50% possession in that match and had 14 strikes at goal, with 6 hitting the target, up against Hull City's tally of 13 efforts at goal, 6 of which were on target.
Manager Kieran McKenna will be delighted with his team's performances in front of goal, having scored 13 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 25 games in a row, and they have recorded 5 clean sheets in the 10 games they've played so far this season.
They have been performing well recently, both home and away, and remain unbeaten in their last 6 games.
When it comes to home matches at Portman Road, Nathan Broadhead will be feeling confident about finding the net again, with 6 league goals for Ipswich Town in their last 6 home games.
Preston North End, Recent FormOn the back of a tough 3-0 away defeat by Leicester City, Preston North End manager Ryan Lowe will have some work to do to get his team in a confident mindset. They came away from that fixture with a 23% share of the possession and clocked up 6 attempts on goal with 1 on target, in comparison to Leicester City, who managed 9 attempts on goal, 4 of which were on target.
They have circumvented their opponent's defence to score 7 times in their last 6 league games but unfortunately haven't managed to lock things down at their end, conceding 10 goals in these games and, in the process, missing out on some valuable points. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 away games, but they have failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 games overall.
It's been a mixed run of away form for Preston recently, with 2 wins and 2 defeats in their last 6 games on the road.
With 4 goals from the last 6 away outings in the league, Ched Evans has given the travelling Preston North End support something to shout about on the road.
After a good 4-0 win for Preston North End in this pair's last league encounter, Ipswich Town will certainly be looking for a better result this time round.
The Lilywhites defence has struggled at Portman Road, having conceded 1 or more goals in each of their last 9 visits.
Preston has had a poor run in this fixture when they visit Ipswich, being unable to find a win from any of their last 6 league meetings at Portman Road.
With only Lee Evans (Knee) and Brandon Williams (Unknown) the main fitness concerns ahead of this fixture, Kieran McKenna will be happy to have an otherwise healthy squad to pick from.
Ryan Lowe has a number of injury concerns in his Preston squad to contend with: Ched Evans (Spinal cord), Calvin Ramsay (Knee) and Emil Riis (Cruciate ligament)
