Ipswich vs Blackburn Form Analysis
The home side defeated League One side Blackpool in the FA Cup last time out, tallying just the 32 shots in that victory. They followed up a victory away at league leaders Coventry City with a home win against Oxford United to climb to third place in the table, just two points off Middlesborough in second. Ipswich have scored nine goals in their last five matches, conceding just three. They have also won four consecutive matches on home soil.
Blackburn propose quite dissimilar form. They were defeated by Hull City on penalties in what has to be the worst tie of the third round. Blackburn have drawn three of their last four league matches, last claiming victory against Millwall in December. Blackburn have had greater joy on their travels than at home, having claimed five victories in 12 matches on the road.
The previous matchups between the two sides read favourably in the goals department. Ipswich have a strong record against Blackburn at Portman Road.

Ipswich vs Blackburn Key Players to Watch
Chuba Akpom (Ipswich) Akpom was handed a start against Oxford United and followed this up with a goal in victory. He will be hoping that this is the kickstart to his career in Ipswich colours, where we have seen he is capable of taking the Championship by storm before.
Todd Cantwell (Blackburn) Cantwell is a fan favourite at Blackburn, and for good reason. He claimed an assist against Chartlon last time out to take his tally to four for the reason and is the real creative spark in this Rovers side.
