Confident for this one, which I don't like to be honest.

Tough game against a team who’s making the champ look easy for a promoted team. In saying that it’s a good ground for us and we have 2 wins and 3 clean sheets. A win here would boost the team massively but I’d take a draw.

 

[TomRad85]

Ipswich will be found out. Good manager, average squad on paper. Still tough though of course, I reckon a draw.

Simms for Godden and I think we win it.

 

[SeaSeeEffCee]

Hopefully a game we will do well in as we’ll be able to counter attack more.

1-1 draw I reckon.

 

[shmmeee]

Tough tough game. Probably the biggest test of our new back line.

Would take a draw all day long. If we win march to the arch is on.

 

[Jamesimus]

Would be happy with a draw. Good manager, cohesive team and doing very well at the mo.

Not sure, I think they're the real deal to be honest. I don't think they'll finish any worse than 4th.

Hope Conor Chaplin doesn't score against us.

Extra day's rest might should work in our favour. Some players looked knackered last night by the 70 minute mark (Allen and Eccles in particular).
Simms for Godden, but otherwise unchanged for me. Hopefully Kasey Palmer on the bench

 

[shmmeee]

Am I right in thinking they’ve not scored less than two in a game at home this season and won every home game?

 

[San Francisco]

We'll beat these. We're exactly the kind of team that'll beat them.

 

[SkyblueTexan]

Tough match and they're really good at home. Really impressed by what they've achieved so far (and how easy it's they've made it look) after just being promoted. Can't believe Connor Chaplin has become as good as he has (fair play to him I suppose). Knowing MR, he'll keep the lineup unchanged, but rotations may be needed here as I wasn't very impressed by what I saw vs Plymouth. Another clean sheet here for us would be massive.

 

[Sick Boy]

Start Simms instead of Gooden; 3-2 win.

Think Leeds beat them there

 

[shmmeee]

Think this might be a brief bed wetting tsunami before normal drying resumes.

 

[Macca1987]

Would love a win like the last time we travelled there, but head says a draw at the most

 

[shmmeee]

You’re right. I didn’t go all the way back to the start of the season

 

[skyblueelephant76]

They've won 7 out of 8 but they also concede almost 2 goals a game at home too.

 

[Saddlebrains]

Lets be honest its a free hit this one

Snatch your hand off for a point. Blues Friday is a game i expect us to win

 

[CV22SBA]

Tough game, best home record in the league this season but they do concede a lot of goals. Hopefully, our clean sheet run continues here and we can sneak one on the break.

Can't believe this isn't sold out as one of the lowest allocations this season.

Fucking miles away and Christmas payday probably have something to do with it

 

[SkyBlueSoul]

I admire some people's confidence, not quite there myself. We've looked a lot better the last two games but last night wasn't totally convincing, which admittedly you could put down to us being a bit leggy after Saturday and keeping the same line up.

Don't think we'll get rolled over but they're up there on merit now. Only thing giving me hope is that they've conceded 2 in each of their last 5 league games. Pessimistic prediction 2-1 loss, optimistic prediction 2-2.

 

[Tommo1993]

Must win. I expect Ipswich to fall out of the top 6 come May.

 

[ccfcricoh]

they've had a great start and are there on merit, i dont think they'll stick it out and still be there in May though.

Hopefully their recent dip in form continues and we can come away with at least a point

 

[AOM]

Same, based on absolutely nothing I'm expecting a win. Seems a proper Coventry result to go there and get a win when they're doing so well (although lost last game).
Would take a draw though

 

[Houchens Head]

Been impressed with Ipswich this season, but I think City have just started to gel now and players are finding their feet at last. I'd love a win but head tells me a 1-1 draw. Wright to score late on with the equaliser.

 

[CV22SBA]

Christmas yes but its not fucking miles away. Ipswich is 10 miles further than Millwall and timewise probably quicker by road.

 

[Houchens Head]

I'd like to see the same 4-3-3 formation that started against Millwall, but using Simms for Godden to start. It worked really well. Nice to have seen Sakamoto on the score sheet. That will boost his confidence no end.

 

[Sky_Blue_Daz]

Take 0-0 to be honest

Ah msybevim thinking Norwich

 

[mmttww]

Ah msybevim thinking Norwich

 

[Johhny Blue]

Hopefully a game we will do we’ll in as well be able to counter attack more.

1-1 draw I reckon.

See me after class

 

[Deleted member 5849]

We'll lose. Ah well
