-- QPR plays Bolton on the 11th, their 'make up game' and another stroke of luck for us, Bolton crushes QPR 3-0 and everything in the standings remains the same.

-- All of the contenders are playing lower ranked teams today. Hull, QPR and Huddersfield are on the road, Stoke/Watford/Ipswich at home.

April 14th, 2018

Fulham(19th) @ Ipswich(25-11-6, 2nd)

We're even money favorites to win today at home. Fulham are 11:5 dogs. We're 4-2-5 lifetime against them and tied them 3:3 back in December.

GK: Murphy
D: Kirkland/Bruce/Brown/Berthet
DMC: Paulo
MC: Donnelly/Bennett
AMC: Mills
ST: Khan/Constantino

Fulham's Chris Makiese leads them with 14 goals. Bennett is healthy again and back in the lineup. Mills starts for Neil Gordon in response to the super crappy game he had against Sheffield Wed. We're attacking from the outset today.

17': A couple attacking moves for us but we've put 4 shots off target so far, a couple way way over.

27': We put our first shot on target, but its a 25 yard effort from Mills that the keeper easily scoops up.

45': They move down the right side and get a cross into the area, a header from fairly close range... but right at Murphy.

HALF: Pretty boring half. We have 9 shots, they have 4. We've only put one on target, they have 2 on target. We'll keep the pressure on and hope to break through.

46': They start with the ball, but Kirkland makes a key tackle very early in their buildup, he sends it forward to Khan, Khan plays a quick give and go with Constantino, Khan receives the ball back, gets into the area and beats the keeper! 1-0

58': Donnelly picks up a yellow for a tackle in midfield.

59': Tommy Jylha for Fulham picks up a yellow.

60': We earn a corner, its taken to the near man in Alex Bruce, he finds a shot, their keeper has to dive but is able to make the save, so close.

70': We have a throwin in their end, Donnelly passes to Khan, back to Donnelly, he shoots, its off the keeper, off the post and back into play... Bryan Bennett is there for the rebound and puts it in!! 2-0

80': Ford and Coutts in for Bennett and Donnelly.

92': Troy Brown picks up a yellow, giving them a free kick about 25 yards out. They kick it off the wall and out for a corner. We clear the corner, but they send it back in and earn corner #2. We really care about goal differential here, so we're really happy to get this one out.

That'll do it!

Ipswich 2 : 0 Fulham

Man of the Match: Matthew Khan (8.3)
Goals: Khan, Bennett (7.5)
Assists: Donnelly (7.5), Constantino (7.0)
Notables: Berthet (7.1), Kirkland (7.7), Bruce (7.1)

Cardiff beats Huddersfield, Norwich beats Stoke and Sheffield Wednesday beats Watford. Damn!! QPR and Burnley win.

1. Ipswich - 87 pts
2. Huddersfield - 85 pts
------------------------------
3. QPR - 84
4. Stoke - 84 pts
5. Burnley - 81 pts
6. Watford - 83 pts
---------------------------
7. Hull - 81 pts

3 matches to go, still only 6 points between first and 7th, but that win puts us in a much stronger position, obviously.
