Norwich City v Ipswich Town: Match Preview and Lineups
Championship clash at Carrow Road
Norwich City will host local rivals Ipswich Town in a highly-anticipated Championship clash at Carrow Road on Saturday, April 6th, 2024.
Both teams come into the match in good form, with Norwich sitting third in the table and Ipswich eighth. Norwich will be looking to extend their unbeaten run to four matches, while Ipswich will be aiming to bounce back from their defeat to Burnley last weekend.
The match is sure to be a close affair, with both teams having plenty of quality in their ranks. Norwich will be relying on the goals of Teemu Pukki and Josh Sargent, while Ipswich will be hoping that James Norwood and Conor Chaplin can find the back of the net.
The match will be live on Sky Sports, with coverage starting at 12:30pm. You can also follow the match live on the BBC Sport website.
