History of the Ipswich Town v Watford fixture

Ipswich Town prepare to entertain Watford at Portman Road on Tuesday evening, looking to continue an impressive record. The Tractor Boys are clearly on top, having won 17 and lost only 6 of the 31 games.

The most recent encounter between these two sides at Portman Road was less than a year ago, in March 2009, when they played out a goalless draw in a Championship match.

Recent respective form guides

Ipswich Town will be hoping to improve on their poor home form, collecting just 4 draws from the last six contests. While Tractor Boys have scored 4, a worringly large 10 have been leaked at the other end.

Watford's away form is none too clever either, with 3 victories and just 1 loss from the last six. The games have constituted a decent return of 9 goals for the Hornets, and 13 goals against.

Ipswich Town find themselves stuck right at the bottom of the division. Their 12 games have yielded only 6 points. Watford's 17 points from 12 games sees them lie inside the top half of the table, in 12th position.
