Our prediction for this League 1 match:
Ipswich Town play host to Cheltenham Town at their Portman Road on day 35 of the new League One campaign. The Tractor Boys impressed in a 3-0 win over Burton, and, as a result, the odds for home win have been dropping. Lee Evans has overcome his injury, but this games comes too early for Kyle Edwards. Ipswich boss McKenna is unlikely to make changes to the team that outplayed the Brewers at the weekend.
Cheltenham, on the other hand, played out an unbelievable 5-5 draw with Wycombe in their last league match to extend their unbeaten run to five games. Anyhow, we are tempted to put our money on Ipswich Town produced a thrilling display in the crushing of Burton. Conor Thomas is a major doubt, and he will be assessed ahead of the kick-off, with all Charlie Brown, George Lloyd, and Ellis Chapman missing out with injuries.
