Ipswich Town will aim to keep hold of their automatic promotion spot when they visit West Bromwich Albion on Saturday lunchtime (12:30 BST).

They could already be ousted from the position by the time they reach the Hawthorns with Millwall to play Leicester City on Friday, however the Tractor Boys could take a minimum three point advantage into the final day if they win on the weekend and in their midweek game with Southampton.

  • Since 2000, West Brom are unbeaten in all seven of their home league games against Ipswich (W5 D2); their last such defeat to the Tractor Boys came in March 1999 (0-1).
  • After their 1-0 win in October, Ipswich Town are looking to complete their first league double over West Brom since 1998-99.
  • West Brom have only lost their final home league game in one of their last 22 seasons outside of the top-flight (W15 D6), going down 0-2 to Birmingham in 2003-04. The Baggies have won their final home league game in each of their last four Championship campaigns.
  • Ipswich lost their only previous away league game at West Brom under Kieran McKenna 2-0 in November 2023; the only opponent the Tractor Boys lost both of their first two away league games against under McKenna are Preston.
  • West Brom have won four of their last seven league games (D3), as many as their previous 27 beforehand (W4 D8 L15).
