Ipswich Town will travel from Ipswich, Suffolk, to play an away match against Watford tonight, February 24, 2026, as the club continues its campaign for promotion. The game is the 34th fixture of the season and is set to take place at Vicarage Road with kick-off at 7:45pm.

Supporters can watch the match live on Sky Sports . For fans making the trip to the stadium, the club has issued a specific Ipswich Town matchday guide containing travel and stadium information.

Manager Kieran McKenna will be missing three key players for the match, as Jaden Philogene, Conor Townsend, and Ashley Young are all out with injuries according to MightyTips. The team is expected to rely on winger Jack Clarke, who has scored 12 league goals so far this season as noted by Compare.bet.
