Ipswich Town have issued travel advice for supporters ahead of Sunday's Premier League fixture against AFC Bournemouth. The match at Portman Road kicks off on November 8, 2026, as the club looks to improve on a run of one win in its last five games across all competitions. The team currently sits 14th in the Premier League with 11 points from nine games, comprising three wins, two draws, and four defeats.

Kieran McKenna's side currently sit 14th in the Premier League table with 11 points from nine matches. They are six points behind their eighth-placed visitors, having drawn their last two league games. Their most recent result was a 2-2 draw away to Hull City on October 31, where goals from Florentino Luís and Julio Enciso secured a point. That result followed a 1-1 home draw with Nottingham Forest on October 23, in which Enciso was also on the scoresheet. The team has conceded a goal, on average, every 65 minutes this season, part of a total of 18 goals conceded against 14 scored, giving them a goal difference of minus four.

Bournemouth have won the last two Premier League meetings between the sides, both by a 2-1 scoreline. The most recent clash was at the Vitality Stadium in April 2025. Andoni Iraola's team arrive after a mixed run, having lost to Liverpool last time out in the league but thrashing Lincoln City 4-0 in the Carabao Cup.

The club's official statement, titled "Travel Advice for Bournemouth Fixture", urges fans to plan their journeys in advance and check for any potential disruptions. Portman Road is expected to be at capacity for the Sunday afternoon encounter. Following this match, Ipswich will travel to face Manchester United at Old Trafford on November 22.

Ipswich's form over their last four league games shows one win, two draws and one defeat. This sequence, reading as one win, two draws and one loss from the last four, includes the 2-1 victory over Fulham on October 10 and the 3-2 defeat at Manchester City on October 17. The team will be aiming to build on their last home victory, a 2-1 win over Fulham in October.

With both teams separated by just six places in the standings, this match represents a key opportunity for Ipswich to climb the table. A win could help close the significant 13-point gap to league leaders Arsenal. The final preparation and team news will be confirmed by McKenna in his pre-match press conference.
