Ipswich Town vs Newcastle Stats: Head to Head (H2H)
17 Apr 2017 - Championship
Ipswich Town - Newcastle: Form Analysis
Ipswich are having a difficult time back in the Premier League and so far have managed just two wins in 16 fixtures. They have suffered eight defeats and this unwanted form has them sitting third from bottom with 12 points.
Kieran McKenna’s men boosted their chances of clawing out of the red zone last time out thanks to a 2-1 away win over fellow strugglers Wolves. The win moved them to within two points of safety and the Blues will be eager for a similar outcome here.
Ipswich, who claimed 16 home wins in their promotion campaign last season, are yet to register a win at their Portman Road Stadium.
Ipswich Town will target back to back wins for the first time this season.
Newcastle are faring much better than their soon-to-be hosts and will arrive for this match confident of a win. They have registered six wins and drawn five more games to amass 23 points.
Though they sit in the bottom half of the standings, Eddie Howe’s men are only two points adrift of the top six places. Newcastle are coming off a midweek 3-1 home win against Brentford that secured their place in the League Cup semi-finals.
It was their second successive victory after hammering struggling Leicester City 4-0 at home in the league. Newcastle, who've registered nine of their 23 points away from home, haven’t won away to Ipswich since 2009.

Ipswich Town & Newcastle Squad Analysis
Ipswich will be without striker Liam Delap for this match due to suspension. Delap is the team’s leading scorer this season and has bagged six league goals.
Axel Tuanzebe and George Hirst are also unavailable due to injuries. Ipswich can still count on Omari Hutchinson, Conor Chaplin and Jack Taylor in the search for goals.
Both Ipswich Town and Newcastle United will have a player suspended.
Newcastle have also been dealt the suspension card and will head into this game without midfielder Joelinton. The Brazilian is the only player from last weekend who will be unavailable.
Callum Wilson, Jamal Lascelles and Sven Botman remain long-term injury absentees. Sandro Tonali scored a brace against Brentford in midweek. The Italian will most likely maintain his spot in midfield alongside Bruno Guimares.
Alexander Isak is having another exciting season in front of goal and will lead the line here seeking to add to his seven league goals.
