Match preview

Back in January, Ipswich reached a new low away to Accrington in the FA Cup, losing 1-0 to a side then a division below them.

Relegation from the Sky Bet Championship followed for Paul Lambert's men but a summer reshuffle and injection of confidence has catapulted the Tractor Boys to the summit of England's third tier.

They are top with a game in hand and are the only unbeaten club in the EFL.

A run of five clean sheets in their last six assignments suggests organisation at the back, while in-form duo Kayden Jackson and James Norwood, who underwent a groin operation during the international break, have 11 league goals between them.

The superb start has seen Ipswich slashed to title favouritism and they can clear another hurdle at the Wham Stadium.

Stanley are languishing in the depths of League One with only two wins from 12 games, shipping 21 goals already this campaign.

Ipswich's scheduled fixture with Wycombe was rearranged last weekend due to international call-ups meaning the bulk of their squad have had extra rest and they should be confident of taking maximum points.

Key stat

Ipswich have won eight of their opening 11 league encounters.
