History of the Ipswich Town v Queens Park Rangers fixture

Ipswich Town prepare to entertain Queens Park Rangers at Portman Road on Saturday afternoon, and hold the advantage on previous meetings between the two. Of the 30 games played, Tractor Boys have recorded 14 wins, and Q.P.R. have come away with 7 victories.

The most recent encounter between these two sides at Portman Road was just last season, in December 2005, where the two teams cancelled each other out in an enthralling 2-2 draw in a Championship match.
