Leicester Return to Top - Ipswich Town News

Town dropped back to second in the Championship table following Leicester City’s 3-2 victory over Millwall at the King Power Stadium on Wednesday evening.

Leeds losing 1-0 at Sunderland on Tuesday means Town are now 10 points in front of the third-placed Whites.
