Andy Thorn's side are bidding for a 900th home league win, and a fourth in succession at the Ricoh.
• Yet the Sky Blues are two points adrift at the foot of the table, seven points from safety, with just five wins from their 28 games. It is the worst equivalent return since their very first season in the Football League in 1919/20, when they secured three wins and eight draws in the first 28 outings.
• Coventry were on course for a first away win of this Championship campaign, leading Blackpool 1-0 with three minutes remaining on Tuesday. But they lost 2-1, and have now flittered away a potential 18 points from winning positions.
• The Tractor Boys are chasing their first back-to-back wins in eight league games, following Tuesday's stunning 5-1 triumph over leaders West Ham; their biggest win of the season and the second time in nine league games that they had scored five times.
• The Suffolk club are eager to avoid a fifth successive away defeat, and a fourth in a row in the league.
• A point will give Ipswich their 400th away draw in league football, but the first goal they let in will be the 100th conceded under Paul Jewell (all comps).
We can beat Ipswich but for a whole host of reasons I am not confident of it........
