IPSWICH PREVIEW: TRACTOR BOYS SENSING A CHANCE
Kieran McKenna has presided over a simply magnificent few years at Portman Road and Ipswich Town are now looking to take that next step with a victory in the top-flight. Some have criticised Ipswich for appearing out of their depth but that argument feels toothless and quite nonsensical, to be honest.
Beginning with defeats to Liverpool and Manchester City is not remotely a disaster and they have since been unbeaten in the league since then. A 1-1 draw against a strong Fulham side preceded a goalless draw with Brighton and Hove Albion at the AMEX Stadium before a last gasp equaliser against Southampton to continue the good feeling.
ASTON VILLA PREVIEW: VILLA
Aston Villa have a hectic fixture list with a small-ish squad this season but Unai Emery’s side, albeit unconvincingly at times, are coping extremely well with it at the moment as they seek to put points on the board before the inevitable and reasonable dip in results.
Since returning from the September international break, Villa have managed four victories in a row across all competitions with a variety of wins. Coming from 2-0 down to beat Everton and 1-0 down to beat Wolverhampton Wanderers in the Premier League, hammering Young Boys by three goals to nil in the UEFA Champions League and then flexing their muscles with a heavily rotated side defeating an improved Wycombe Wanderers side in the EFL Cup in midweek.

IPSWICH VS ASTON VILLA PREDICTION
Whilst it has been an extremely strong start to the season for Villa with six victories and one defeat across all competitions, there has been a little concern about fatigue and starting matches slowly. With injuries also now happening, this seems like the perfect chance for a newly-promoted side, who have started steadily, to claim a valuable three points back at their home ground in what will be a raucous atmosphere.
