The Tractor Boys can secure automatic promotion with a win in this fixture

Ipswich Town need a win here to guarantee them an automatic promotion to the Premier League, with Leeds United 3 points behind them with a better goal difference in the last game week. The Blues play attacking football, and are coming off a much-needed win against Coventry City after a rough patch last month.

Meanwhile, Huddersfield Town are all but relegated this season, being 3 points from safety with a game left but having terrible goal difference. They are winless in their last 4 games, and are coming off a 1-1 draw against relegation rivals Birmingham City.
