### FA Cup

As in the League Cup, Ipswich only progressed through one round of the FA Cup, falling to a 2–1 defeat against Southampton at St Mary's. This meant Ipswich was only left with trying to improve its league position.

| Round | Date | Opponent | Venue | Result | Scorers | Attendance | Ref. |
| - | - | - | - | - | - | - | - |
| Third | 2 January | Blackpool | Bloomfield Road | 2–1 | Colback 3', Garvan 77' | 7,332 | |
| Fourth | 23 January | Southampton | St Mary's | 1–2 | Couñago 90' | 20,446 | |

### League Cup

Ipswich Town's League Cup campaign was disappointing. After winning a thrilling first round tie against Shrewsbury Town, Ipswich was knocked out of the competition by Peterborough United at London Road after Ipswich striker Tamas Priskin missed a vital penalty.

| Round | Date | Opponent | Venue | Result | Scorers | Attendance | Ref. |
