Ipswich Town prepare to entertain Leicester City at Portman Road on Tuesday evening, looking to continue an impressive record. The Tractor Boys are clearly on top, having won 15 and lost only 7 of the 29 games.
The most recent encounter between these two sides at Portman Road was less than a year ago, in February 2007, as the visitors ran out cosy 0-2 winners in a Championship match.
