Coventry City 1-2 Ipswich Town

IPSWICH

Ipswich moved within a single point of securing automatic promotion to the Premier League after a 2-1 win at Coventry on Tuesday night.

The Tractor Boys are now three points clear of third-placed Leeds, meaning a draw at home to Huddersfield on Saturday – who are all but relegated already – will be enough to take them back to the top flight for the first time since 2001/02.

Kieffer Moore slammed the visitors in front inside 10 minutes, but Coventry improved and pulled level courtesy of Haji Wright with just over an hour gone.

But centre-back Cameron Burgess was the unlikely hero at the Coventry Building Society Arena scoring less than five minutes later to ensure Town became the first newly promoted side in second-tier history to win 27 league matches in a season to leave them on the verge of securing historic back-to-back promotions.
