Chelsea welcome Ipswich Town to Stamford Bridge on Sunday for a Premier League clash that pits two sides at opposite ends of the table.
Enzo Maresca's Chelsea have made a habit of brushing aside struggling opponents on home soil since the festive period—Tottenham included, in what’s been a forgettable run for the North Londoners. While consistency remains elusive, the Blues are still firmly in the hunt for a Champions League spot and took a major step toward the UEFA Europa Conference League semi-finals with a commanding 3-0 win over Legia Warsaw on Thursday night, featuring a goal from Tyrique George and a double from Noni Madueke.
Meanwhile, Ipswich Town come into the weekend in deep relegation trouble, sitting in the bottom three and trailing safety by 12 points with only 21 left on the table. Last weekend's collapse at Wolves may well go down as the pivotal moment in their survival bid. Liam Delap gave the Tractor Boys a deserved lead, but they capitulated after the break, conceding to Pablo Sarabia and Jorgen Strand Larsen to suffer their 19th loss of the campaign.
