Match preview for Ipswich v Arsenal
Arsenal are still basking in the glow of their Champions League quarter-final victory over Real Madrid, but they could officially see their Premier League title hopes come to an end this weekend.
The Gunners completed a stunning 5-1 aggregate win over Madrid by triumphing 2-1 at the Santiago Bernabeu on Wednesday to progress to the semi-finals, where they will face Paris Saint-Germain.
Europe’s premier club competition is Arsenal’s sole remaining hope of winning a trophy this season, with their prospects of winning the Premier League having all but evaporated.
Arsenal are 13 points behind Liverpool with six games to play, and defeat to Ipswich Town at Portman Road on Sunday may spell the end of the title race.

Indeed, if Arsenal lose to relegation-threatened Ipswich and Liverpool subsequently beat Leicester City, then Arne Slot’s side will be champions.
Victory for Arsenal would only serve to prolong the inevitable, though it would be important in keeping Newcastle United at arm’s length in the race for second place.
Newcastle visit Aston Villa on Saturday and would move just a point behind Arsenal with victory.
Ipswich, meanwhile, are on the cusp of their relegation to the Championship being confirmed.
