Ipswich Town aim to go level on points with Championship leaders Leicester as they travel to the Welsh capital to face another high-flying side in Cardiff City.
Cardiff City garnered their third win on the trot as they managed a narrow 1-0 victory against Huddersfield midweek. The Bluebirds would be vying to continue this form and hand Ipswich a massive blow in the latter's hunt for silverware.
Ipswich Town are on a scintillating streak of six victories on the bounce as they continued their sublime form in a five-goal thriller against Bristol as they beat the Robins 3-2.
