Wycombe Wanderers are on course to beat a 20-year-old attendance record when they face Ipswich Town on November 2.
The club have confirmed that their opponents have sold out their allocation, meaning around 1,800 Tractor Boys are expected to make the trip from Suffolk to Buckinghamshire.
#Chairboys could break an Adams Park attendance record stretching back almost 20 years when Ipswich Town visit next Tuesday.

This comes after the original date for this fixture was postponed in September due to Wanderers having several players away on international duty.
The current record attendance for a midweek match at Adams Park is 9,250, when the Chairboys took on Reading in February 2002.
Despite the house on the verge of being full, Wanderers lost 2-0, with Jamie Cureton and Darius Henderson getting the goals in the second half.
A month earlier, the highest attendance ever at the stadium was recorded, when 9,921 supporters visited Adams Park to watch the Chairboys take on Premier League Fulham in the third round of that year’s FA Cup, which finished 2-2.

The highest number of fans that have ever attended a Wycombe home match was back in 1950, when 15,850 people packed inside Loakes Park to see Wanderers to take on St Albans City in a FA Amateur Cup fixture.
The fourth round tie between the Buckinghamshire and Hertfordshire sides was played in February of that year.
