Sports Mole looks ahead to Saturday's Championship meeting between Ipswich Town and Leeds United at Portman Road.

Ipswich Town will be hoping to ease their relegation fears when they host Leeds United at Portman Road on Saturday afternoon.

Mick McCarthy's side have won two and drawn two of their last six games to move four points clear of the drop zone.

Leeds travel to Suffolk seeking three points to reignite their push for the playoffs. Their promotion hopes suffered a blow when they lost 2-1 at home to Huddersfield Town on March 16.

One win from their last six matches has seen the Yorkshire outfit drop to 10th in the table, seven points adrift of the playoff spots.

McCarthy will have to make at least one change to the Ipswich side which which beat Bolton 1-0 in their last outing two weeks ago, after on-loan goalkeeper Stephen Henderson was recalled by West Ham United this week. Scott Loach could take his place.

Leeds boss Neil Warnock will be hoping that strikers Ross McCormack and Steve Morison will be fit for the game after the pair missed the defeat against Huddersfield.
