Summary

  • Murphy (2) and Sears earn victory for Ipswich

  • Ipswich have now won on their last four visits to The Valley

  1. Charlton 0-0 Ipswichpublished at 18 mins

    Great technique from Freddie Sears almost has Ipswich in front, as he manages to run on to Luke Chambers' cross, which looped wildly in the air off a defender, and hits the cleanest of volleys.

    But Stephen Henderson is equal to it and keeps the match goalless.

  2. Charlton 0-0 Ipswichpublished at 16 mins

    Time almost seemed to stand still in the Charlton area for a second as no one seemed to react to Brett Pitman's flick. Eventually Pitman retreives the ball but Morgan Fox cuts it out for a corner which comes to nothing for the visitors.

    It's been a little bit scrappy so far.

  3. Charlton 0-0 Ipswichpublished at 15 mins

    Charlton will probably have to go a little bit more defensive with the loss of Johnnie Jackson, who had scored in both of the Addicks' recent victories.

    Not great for Charlton as they lose their captain Johnnie Jackson, who signed a new contract with the club yesterday, to an early injury.

    He looks close to tears as he comes off for Chris Solly. It has the look of a long-term injury.

  5. Charlton 0-0 Ipswichpublished at 11 mins

    Brett Pitman has Ipswich's first shot at goal from outside of the area, but it's tame and barely stings the palms of Stephen Henderson in the home net.

    But, almost immediately, Daryl Murphy heads just wide from Jonathan Douglas's cross.

    It looked rather easy for the Republic of Ireland man to get his header away there.

  6. And at Oakwell...published at 10 mins

    Charlton 0-0 Ipswich

    We have the opening goal of the afternoon in League One where Chris Basham has headed Sheffield United in front against Barnsley.

  7. Charlton 0-0 Ipswichpublished at 9 mins

    Interestingly, teenager Ademola Lookman is only making his fourth senior appearance, having joined the Addicks from Waterloo FC last year.

    He has looked the most likely to make something so far with his pace on the shoulders of Ipswich's back four.

    Ademola Lookman has looked very dangerous in these opening stages. He gets space out on the right-hand side, but cannot find Simon Makienok with his delivery. 

  9. Charlton 0-0 Ipswichpublished at 4 mins

    First sight of goal goes the way of Charlton as youngster Ademola Lookman turns an Ipswich defender, but his shot from outside the area is deflected out for a corner, which leads to nothing.

    Meanwhile, Charlton fans hold up signs in protest of their owner Roland Duchatelet showing their discontent at how the club is being run.

    The Addicks are immediately on the front foot, and use the left-hand side of Morgan Fox, but his cross is stopped by Luke Chambers.

    So can last season's play-off semi-finalists Ipswich maintain their push for the top six? Or will the Addicks continue their upsurge in form under Karel Fraeye?

    And, more importantly, are you able name those two Premier League cult classics (12:15)?

    Mick McCarthy's Ipswich are also getting back to their best after a tricky spell of one win in 10 Championship games between the end of August and October.

    The league's early leaders have picked up seven points from a possible nine, partly down to the revitalised form of last season's Championship top-scorer Daryl Murphy, who has scored four goals in his last two club matches.

    The 32-year-old's hat-trick against Rotherham on 7 November ended his drought for the season, and he followed it up last week with another goal against Wolves.

    Charlton are enjoying a mini-revival of sorts under interim manager Karel Fraeye.

    The Belgian lost his first two matches after taking over from Guy Luzon - a man who had felt defeat in seven of his last nine games in charge.

    But impressive victories over promotion hopefuls Sheffield Wednesday and Birmingham City have lifted the Addicks out of the Championship relegation zone.

    Cast you mind way back to New Year's Day 2002.

    It may bring back painful memories for those who celebrated the night before a little too hard, or it could have been the start of the best year of your life.

    Well for Charlton and Ipswich it was the last time they faced each other in the top flight.

    Much has changed since then, with Town going down that year yet to return and the Addicks doing the same in 2007, but today they face each other in our early Championship kick-off.

    (Extra points if you can name both players in that picture)
