*Odds from Ladbrokes, subject to change
Although Charlton are better placed in the league standings, as highlighted earlier, the bookies have decided to back the hosts to come out tops in this encounter, and that may not be unconnected with their impressive head-to-head record against the visitors.
Going by the projection of the bookmakers, Ipswich are priced at 13/20 (1.65), which represents a 60.6% chance for the Tractor Boys to claim all three points on Tuesday.
For a full-time draw, the bookies have placed a price of 14/5 (3.80), which translates to 26.3% for the game to end all square after regulation time. The odds look juicy considering that both sides have similar form, and that could just be a value bet.
As far as winning goes for the away side, the odds are 17/4 (5.25), meaning a 19.0% chance for Charlton to carry the day.
Most recent H2Hs: Ipswich have dominated recent meetings between the two sides
Ipswich have won three games in their last five recent meetings, with Charlton managing to win one, with the other fixture ending in a draw. That said, the present realities are different, and each of these teams will have to fight to claim the spoils on Tuesday.

Ipswich preview: The hosts have enjoyed the rub of the green
Ipswich enjoyed a five-game unbeaten run before they were brought back to earth in their last outing, after they suffered a 2-1 loss to Middlesbrough. The Tractor Boys won three and drew, but they fell short in their last outing.
With that form against the visitors, the home side will go into this clash in a confident mood, and with the backing of the fans, they will back themselves to win on Tuesday.
However, they will have to do battle without the likes of Wes Burns (knee), Harrison Clarke (unspecified injury) and Conor Townsend (knee) when they clash with the Addicks on Tuesday.
