The visitors head into this weekend currently sat second in the table, two points adrift of top spot.
Match preview
Charlton will seek to return to winning ways here after suffering a 2-0 defeat in midweek to MK Dons, ending a run of three consecutive wins for the Addicks.
Will Grigg's penalty and a Bradley Johnson free kick secured victory for the Dons at 10-man Charlton, to end a run of five straight league defeats for Liam Manning's side.
Ryan Inniss was dismissed after collecting a second yellow card for bringing down Louie Barry inside the penalty area, before Grigg took full advantage from the spot. Johnson then doubled the lead with a superbly struck 78th minute free kick from 20 yards out to seal all three points.
Prior to that, Charlton had recorded some impressive results beating fellow playoff chasers Portsmouth at The Valley, before travelling to Montgomery Waters Meadow to conquer Shrewsbury Town.
Ben Garner's men remain four points off the playoff spots, and they now face the challenge of toppling an Ipswich Town side that have only lost once on their travels so far this season.
Ipswich have enjoyed a strong start to their League One campaign, winning 11, drawing three and losing two of their opening 16 fixtures so far.
The Blues have responded accordingly after suffering consecutive defeats in separate competitions against Lincoln City and Cambridge United.
Wes Burns's strike in the 67th minute was enough to beat Derby County 1-0 last Friday, before Freddie Ladapo's brace, along with Cameron Humphreys's effort, edged a closely-fought contest in midweek against Port Vale.
Those back-to-back victories mean that Tractor Boys remain two points behind leaders Plymouth Argyle, and they could leapfrog them into first position should results favour them here.
Kieran McKenna's side have won six of their eight matches away from home this season, so they will be fancying their chances of potentially going top of the table.
