Ipswich(9-2-4, 3rd) @ Exeter(1-4-10, 20th)


We're big 4:5 road favorites against Exeter. They fought well to get to 14th last year in their first year in the EPL but aren't able to do much of anything this year.

GK: Capitani
D: Kirkland/Mattle/Welsh/Jackson
M: Adagsmar/Clifford/Jean/Hutchinson
F: Khan/Bryan

Some changes today after 2 matches on 3 days rest. Mattle/Welsh at DC, Jackson at DR, Clifford/Jean/Hutchinson in the midfield are new today. And Khan/Bryan up front.

Exeter are running a 3-4-3 today. Standard mindset today.

13': They put 3 early shots on target but Capitani makes solid saves.

36': Couple highlights for us but 3 shots off target so far.

49': Jackson with a yellow.

HALF: They shoot 7 times, putting 3 shots on target. We have 3 shots, all off target. We have 54% of the possession but just can't get anything to connect. We'll try to push and attack more in the second half.

53': Clifford gets a shot after a throwin, its our first on target of the match but saved easily.

62': Clifford to Bryan, he turns by a defender and gets a clear cut chance... but saved.

74': Hughes in for Adagsmar, Smith in for Jean

77': Throwin in their end, taken by Mattle, throwin into the area for Hutchinson, he gets a couple steps closer, shoots near post... the keeper dives, gets a hand to it but can't save it, its by and into the right side of the net! 1-0

88': Bryan a yellow.

91': Clifford a yellow.

We hang on for a close win on the road.

Exeter 0 : 1 Ipswich

Its not a great performance but we get the win we need.

Man of the Match: Daryl Hutchinson (7.9)
Goal: Hutchinson
Assist: Mattle (7.8)
Notables: Jackson (7.2), Kirkland (7.1)

Everyone else is 6.8-6.9. Khan was nearly nonexistent today. Again Jean struggles.
