A place in the EFL Cup quarterfinal will be at stake when Ipswich Town and Fulham square off at the Portman Road Stadium on Wednesday (November 1).
Ipswich maintained their fine run of results with a hard-fight 3-2 victory over Plymouth Argyle in the Championship on Saturday.
Kieran McKenna’s side are unbeaten in 11 games across competitions, winning 10, since a 4-3 loss to Leeds United in August.
Ipswich, who are second in the Championship, now turn their attention to the EFL Cup, where they stunned Wolverhampton Wanderers 3-2 in the third round.
Meanwhile, Fulham failed to find their feet in the Premier League, as they could only salvage a 1-1 draw with Brighton & Hove Albion on Sunday. Marco Silva’s men have won only one of their last five league games, losing twice, since September.

While Fulham will look to find their feet and continue their cup quest, they need to show their mettle against a spirited Ipswich side firing on all cylinders.
