Three wins on the road, six unbeaten. Up to fourth in the table as things stand. A first away clean sheet since Sept 2024.

Hull City (A).

A trip to the Championship’s great entertainers. This game should suit #itfc more after frustration against Wrexham, but the Tigers will be a tough nut to crack.

Hirst has eyes on a place at the World Cup, but will need to up his levels to give himself a good shot at making Scotland’s squad.

Stats suggest Azon will kick, and he passes the eye test, but will it happen?

I love the Championship.

#itfc in seventh and looking up, but the top six isn’t made up of the teams you’d expect.

🔵 Coventry
🔵 Middlesbrough
🔵 Stoke
🔵 Preston
🔵 Hull
🔵 Millwall

I’ve had a look at them and whether they can last at the top… 👇
