Ipswich moved back to within seven points of Championship leaders Leicester after coming from behind to beat Sunderland 2-1 at Portman Road.<\/p>\n

Kieran McKenna’s men momentarily slipped out of the automatic promotion places after Southampton’s 4-0 win over Sheffield Wednesday earlier in the day and they fell behind to Jack Clarke’s stunner after 26 minutes.<\/p>\n

Kayden Jackson’s clinical leveller – his third goal of the season – brought Town back on level terms within seven minutes.<\/p>\n

And the hosts made sure of their first win in six games, following a largely frustrating festive period, when Conor Chaplin diverted a pinpoint cross from Leif Davis past Anthony Patterson.<\/p>\n

The reinvigoration of their top-two hopes sees Ipswich keep Saints a further three points behind, while Sunderland stay seventh, behind sixth-placed Coventry on goal difference alone.<\/p>\n
