Team news

Tractor Boys Kieran McKenna is wrestling with a sizeable injury list, but at least has plenty of quality reinforcements to call upon.

Wes Burns is approaching the latter stages of his recovery programme, having torn his anterior cruciate ligament during February’s 4-1 loss to Liverpool.

Conor Townsend sustained the same injury in pre-season and will remain sidelined for the foreseeable future.

After skipping both of Republic of Irelans October qualifiers, Sammie Szmodics was fit enough to start Friday night’s encounter with Boro.

Cameron Humphreys remains a doubt following a lengthy stint on the treatment table, while Harry Clarke has yet to make a first-team appearance since returning from a six-month loan spell with Sheffield United.

In the opposite dugout, Addicks head coach Nathan Jones continues to deal with the absence of talismanic striker Matt Godden.

Scottish full-back Josh Edwards is still suffering from an ankle problem which has seen him miss Charlton's last three league outings.

The stats

Only league leaders Coventry City have scored as many goals at home as Ipswich , with both sides netting on 13 occasions.

Kieran McKenna's men fired in exactly 100 shots during their first nine Championship fixtures – just under half of these attempts have hit the target.

Jaden Philogene has recorded five league goals this term, all of which – including his sensational hat-trick against Sheff Utd – have come at Portman Road.

Charlton have struggled on the road so far, failing to score more than one goal in any of their five visits to opposing grounds.

The Addicks' solitary away victory came against the struggling Blades at Bramall Lane.

Prediction

Had it not been for their imperious home form, Ipswich would be close to the foot of the table.

No team has secured fewer points on their travels, although the Tractor Boys have played one away match fewer following last month's abandoned meeting with Blackburn Rovers at Ewood Park.

Although they undoubtedly head into Tuesday's tie as underdogs, last season’s League One play-off winners are sure to put up a fight.

Charlton have won a greater number of aerial duels (257) than any of their Championship rivals, while imposing central defender Lloyd Jones has registered the most interceptions (19) in the division.

However, if recent history is anything to go by, the visitors are unlikely to earn even a share of the spoils.

The South Londoners were blown away when this pair last met at Portman Road, as a hat-trick from Conor Chaplin, Freddie Ladapo’s second-half brace and a late Leif Davis strike earned Ipswich an emphatic 6-0 triumph.

Back Ipswich to win to nil at 11/8 with LiveScore Bet.
