Fans are helping us on winning home run - Azon
- Published
Ipswich Town have now won six home league games in a row after the 2-0 victory over Bristol City on Tuesday night - and striker Ivan Azon has praised fans for playing their part.
The Tractor Boys moved into second thanks to Jack Clarke's double, putting pressure on third-placed Middlesbrough who travel to Stoke on Wednesday evening.
Kieran McKenna's side have lost just once at Portman Road in the Championship this season (W10 D4) and are unbeaten in nine games on home soil since the 3-0 defeat to Charlton on 21 October (W7 D2), conceding just three goals in that time.
Only league leaders Coventry City (35) have picked up more points at home than Ipswich (34) this season.
"Really nice to win at home," Azon told BBC Radio Suffolk.
"Another win. Thanks to all the fans that come on a Tuesday - 25,000, it's crazy to have everybody here and really thankful.
"Sometimes you don't have the best game and to feel them [fans] close to you is really nice. I've always said I feel them really close and they support us really nicely.
"I think we feel really well at home. Also we need to do it away but it's really nice to have all the fans and I think we feel really comfortable."
The 23-year-old, who is on loan from Serie A side Como, believes Ipswich are "getting better" and "improving as a team".
"I think the results show that," he added. "I think we are trying to achieve the goal [of promotion]. We want to keep going, keep winning and keep gaining points to still be at the top of the table."
