Bristol City will welcome Ipswich Town to Ashton Gate in the EFL Championship on Tuesday. The hosts have three wins from seven games and have a three-point lead over Ipswich, who have two wins from six games.
Bristol have seen a drop in form and are winless in their last two league games. After a 3-1 home loss to Oxford United earlier this month, they were held to a goalless draw by Preston North End. They failed to score for the first time in the league in five games.
The visitors head into the match on a three-game unbeaten streak, recording two wins. After their game against Blackburn Rovers was abandoned due to heavy rains earlier this month, they registered a 2-1 home triumph over Portsmouth last week. Jaden Philogene scored in the ninth minute, and George Hirst doubled their lead in the 41st minute.
