Southampton currently sits in fifth place in the Championship, while Ipswich Town is in second. A victory for Southampton would keep their automatic promotion hopes alive, as they have already secured a play-off spot.

“A Southampton win would set up a four-way shootout on the final day of the regular Championship season between the Saints, Ipswich, Millwall and Middlesbrough,” said an expert.

Southampton’s last game ended in a 2-2 draw against Bristol City. They have won eight of their last ten league matches. In contrast, Ipswich Town’s last match was a goalless draw against West Bromwich Albion.

Key statistics:

• Southampton has accumulated 79 points if they win.
• Ipswich Town needs a victory to secure promotion with 80 points.
• The last encounter between these teams ended in a 1-1 draw.

Cyle Larin is Southampton’s top goalscorer with five goals this season. Meanwhile, Jack Clarke has scored three goals for Ipswich in their last ten league games.

Both teams face high stakes in this crucial match for the promotion race. Southampton has been impressive lately under coach Tonda Eckert, who has gained recognition in the EFL.

A win for Ipswich would almost guarantee their return to the Premier League. The tension is palpable as both teams gear up for this vital clash at St. Mary’s Stadium.
