Ipswich have won two of their last three fixtures
Swansea have won just one of their last seven matches
Recommended bet: Ipswich to win
Ipswich have found life harder than they might have expected on their return to the Championship, but they are the highest placed of the recently relegated clubs and are looking forward to their trip to Swansea as they aim to build on a three-game unbeaten run.
The Tractor Boys are three points outside of the top six having played a game less than the teams above them, but they head to south Wales in search of only their second away win of the campaign.
Swansea are just three points worse off but had to absorb a setback on Wednesday when losing 2-1 at Preston.
Alan Sheehan’s side won the shot count 18 to four at Deepdale, but failed to make their pressure count and their 14-goal league tally is the second lowest among the top 17 clubs.

Team news
Swansea are expected to switch things around after their midweek defeat at Preston with their leading scorer Zan Vipotnik among the players likely to be recalled to the starting XI.
However, Marko Stamenic has missed the last three matches due to personal reasons and Malick Yalcouye was an unused substitute at Preston despite his availability after a three-match ban.
Ipswich are set to take a late decision on left back Leif Davis, who missed Tuesday’s 1-1 draw at home to Watford with a minor hamstring strain.
No fresh injuries are reported but Wes Burns (knee), Sammie Szmodics (knee) and Alex Palmer (calf) remain sidelined for the Suffolk side.

Prediction
Ipswich went through a frustrating experience on Tuesday when drawing 1-1 at home to Watford, but they have taken seven points from their last three games and can sign off for the break by defeating Swansea at the Swansea.com stadium.
The Tractor Boys have assembled a strong squad and their depth was evident in the midweek match with substitutes Jack Clarke and Ivan Azon making a hugely positive impact.
Ipswich are bossing the majority of their games and their xG (28.34) is second only to leaders Coventry.
They look like a team in a false position and should have a bit too much quality and energy for Swansea, who have had one day less to prepare after their defeat away to Preston.
