Chelsea vs. Ipswich Town - prediction, live stream Info. , lineups

Chelsea and Ipswich Town is set to be a pivotal encounter in the Premier League, with significant implications for both teams. Chelsea, currently positioned fourth in the league standings, aims to secure a top-five finish that would guarantee Champions League qualification. Conversely, Ipswich Town finds itself mired in relegation struggles, necessitating a victory to sustain their dwindling hopes of remaining in the top tier . This context heightens the stakes for both squads as they prepare for this crucial clash.

Ipswich Town who are 18th in the table and close to relegation. Can the Tractor Boys get a surprise win.

The addition of an extra Champions League qualifying position means the Blues have a slightly better chance of qualification. They lead sixth-placed Manchester City by a point.  However, wins for City and Aston Villa on Saturday would see Chelsea drop to sixth place. Newcastle are fifth and only behind Chelsea with a goal in hand, so the last thing they need to do is drop points at home to Ipswich Town.

Chelsea drew away from home in their last Premier League game. A 0-0 scoreline was played out against Brentford at Gtech Community Stadium. The West London club boasted 59% possession and had five shots on target.
