Ipswich Town Inches Closer to Premier League Return with 2-1 Victory over Coventry City

Ipswich Town secured a crucial 2-1 victory over Coventry City in the Championship on Tuesday, bringing them within one point of guaranteeing their return to the Premier League after a 22-year absence from the top flight.

The win places Ipswich in second position with 93 points, three points clear of third-placed Leeds United. A draw in their final game against Huddersfield Town on Saturday would be enough to secure their promotion.

Kieffer Moore opened the scoring for Ipswich with a goal in the eighth minute, putting the visitors ahead. Haji Wright equalized for Coventry in the 64th minute, but Cameron Burgess sealed the win for Ipswich with a close-range finish just five minutes later.

Meanwhile, Leicester City, who had already secured promotion, clinched the Championship title with a 3-0 victory over mid-table Preston North End on Monday.
