In a top of the table clash in the EFL Championship, Leeds United hostIpswich Town with both sides looking to continue their domination in England's second division.
After being relegated from the Premier League, Leeds United have found a way to climb back to the pinnacle as they are third in the table. Their winning run of three consecutive games has taken a hit in their last two games but they'll be vying to get back to winning ways against a strong Ipswich side.
Ipswich Town, on the other hand, can go level on points with leaders Leicester City with a win on the road. With 52 points from their 22 games, the visitors would want to continue mounting pressure on the Foxes and gain a direct entry to the Premier League next season.
