Southampton vs Ipswich Town match preview
Two sides in the midst of altogether contrasting recent spells of form are set to lock horns as part of the upcoming round of midweek Championship fixtures on Tuesday, September 19th.
The matchup in question will see Southampton act as hosts, in a meeting with Ipswich Town.
Beginning with the former, Southampton, since enjoying a solid start to their early-season promotion push, have since fallen off in alarming fashion over the course of the last few weeks.
First, a trip to the Stadium of Light to face Sunderland saw the Saints ship five goals without reply, on their way to an embarrassing first defeat of the term.
Then, this past weekend, a 2nd loss swiftly followed, Russell Martin’s troops capitulating to the wrong side of a 4-1 result in a home meeting with Leicester City.
Such woes have seen Southampton tumble to a lowly 9th in England’s 2nd tier, whilst in possession of a -5 goal difference.

Hopeful of putting an end to such hopes, though, will be an Ipswich Town side brimming with confidence at present.
Since sealing their own return to the Championship courtesy of promotion from League One, the Blues have enjoyed a hugely encouraging time of things.
All told, across eight outings in all competitions, Kieran McKenna’s men have rattled off seven victories, with a hard-fought defeat to Leeds United prior to the international break the sole blotch on an otherwise flawless record in 2023/24.
Most recently, in their return to action at the weekend, Ipswich had a solitary Conor Chaplin strike to thank for a deserved victory at struggling Sheffield Wednesday.
The Blues, as a result, find themselves sitting pretty in 3rd in the standings, just a point off early pace-setters Preston North End.
And we at 101 are backing their fine campaign to continue later today, courtesy of an eventual three-point haul at the expense of Southampton.
