Match Preview

Ipswich Town and Leicester City are set to clash at Portman Road in the Championship on March 7, 2026 GMT.

Ipswich Town, positioned 3rd in the standings with 63 points, will take on 22nd-placed Leicester City, who have accumulated 34 points in the league.

Ipswich Town has been in formidable form at home, securing five wins in their last six home matches across all competitions.

In contrast, Leicester City has struggled with a 67% loss rate in their last six Championship fixtures, indicating a challenging period for the team.

Looking at their past head-to-head encounters in all competitions, Ipswich Town has faced three defeats in their last six matchups against Leicester City, setting the stage for an intriguing battle between the two sides at Portman Road.

Algorithm Prediction: Over 2.5 goals to be scored in the match.

Midfielder Azor Matusiwa was the unlikely hero for Ipswich in midweek as his second-half strike sealed a 1-0 home win against play-off hopefuls Hull. After three straight league wins, the Tractor Boys are only three points behind second-placed Middlesbrough with a game in hand.

Leicester were unable to capitalise on West Brom's defeat to Oxford United last weekend, losing 2-0 on home soil to an in-form Norwich side. The Foxes remain winless under new boss Gary Rowett, with their most recent Championship victory coming 10 games ago.
