Ipswich, coming from a good result away at Palace will surely look for the 3 ponts here. 8 points below the play off zone, but Preston with a game in hand and just 7 rounds to go its almost impossible to catch the promotion train. But they need to win and boost their confidence. The team has changed a lot from the promotion contender last season and despite Royle has done a good campaign IMO with the current squad he can feel some pressure on him.
Hull needs about 3 more points to win in order to have absolutely no relegation worries. Easy task you say - 3 points in 7 games.

Yes but:

- today away at pay off hopefuls Ipswich.
- home with Leeds
- away at Sheff Utd
- home with Burnley
- away at Derby
- home with Preston
- away at Watford.

So they have yet to meet 3 of the biggest clubs in the division in 7 games left and thanks god for that 2 consecutive wins / against Crew and Plymouth at home /. Only reasonable chance for Hull in the upcomming games I see against Burnley at home.

Hull should have won with at least 2 goal margin against Crew, cos the visitors defense was a mess.
Against Plymouth they werent the dominate side as it was an equal game and Plymouth missed several big chances, but Hull won with a wonderful counter attack.

Juan is out for tractor boys and thats a blow, cos the on loan midfielder is a creative spark in thei squad, but Westlake and Garvan rare fit to play in Ipswich midfield, also Barron is ready to feature in the squad.

I will go for the home win here, cos Hull is strong and dangerous mainly at home. They had surprised many people this year and despite not having a top squas they have an excellent managment and coach stuff.
Ipswich should make a decent game today.

Ipswich, medium stakes, @1.80 is the average market price and anything below this is not worthed IMO.
