Chelsea’s Premier League title credentials have been negatively impacted in recent weeks after dropping points in their last two matches.

The Blues will be hoping for a return to form on Monday after suffering just a third defeat of the campaign at Stamford Bridge against Fulham on Boxing Day.

Ipswich will also be hoping for better after suffering defeats in their last two matches. That run of form means that they are now three points from safety. However, they are still yet to win a home match since gaining promotion.
