Ipswich
Ipswich currently stands among the top three leaders of the Championship, accumulating 87 points after 41 matches. Although they trail the leader by just one point, considering there is another match in hand for the league frontrunner, the potential gap widens to four points. Ipswich also holds a one-point advantage over their closest pursuer. Thus, the battle for the two direct promotions to the Premier League is incredibly intense. In the previous round, Ipswich suffered a narrow defeat to Norwich with a scoreline of 0-1. Overall, in their last five matches, they have secured three victories and endured two losses.
Watford
Positioned in the middle of the Championship table, Watford has accumulated 51 points after 41 matches. Notably, they maintain a nine-point cushion from the relegation zone, with five matches remaining until the end of the season. It seems highly unlikely that Watford will face relegation. Their last three matches ended in draws, preceded by a minimal victory over Birmingham with a score of 0-1.
