Brighton – Ipswich

Brighton host Ipswich in what promises to be a clash of contrasting fortunes, with the Seagulls sitting 63rd on the table with four points from a win and a draw, having kept a clean sheet while scoring four goals. Ipswich sit comfortably in ninth place, holding six points after two victories but a leaky defence that has conceded ten goals against seven scored. The home side will be eager to convert their solid defensive record into three points, while the visitors will look to build on their unbeaten run and improve a goal difference that currently sits at –3. Both teams enter the fixture with differing ambitions—Brighton hoping to climb out of the relegation zone and Ipswich aiming to maintain pressure on the playoff places.
