Ipswich Town - Southampton predictions

The visiting team knows the task they face will not be easy. Beating Ipswich Town on their own turf would be a major accomplishment, and it is always a formidable challenge.

With the betting odds being what they are, this match could still go either way. Still, the fact that Southampton are generally the weaker team makes this match an uphill battle for them.

While they were seen as firm favourites to lock the three points in their last Championship outing, Ipswich Town were given more than what they bargained for at Blackburn Rovers. Nevertheless, they managed to maintained the halftime lead and bag a victory by a one-goal margin.

A point from the previous league game against Middlesbrough will have come as a disappointment for the The Saints faithful. Their team played at home and was a big favourite to land a victory but instead of maintaining the first-half lead, they were held to a 1:1 draw at the final whistle.

With 5 goals over the previous 3 matches, Ipswich Town attackers are nothing to be scoffed at. If the trend continues, we’ll see some rather impressive records from then by the end of the season.

The Saints may need to work on their defence if they want to get anywhere. In the 3 most recent matches they played, they conceded more than 5 times in total, which is not a good record to have.

Ipswich Town already won against The Saints this season, although it was a rather narrow victory. They’ll have the home-field advantage this time, though, which puts them in the position of favourites.

Fortunately, both teams will have a complete lineup this Monday, with no players out due to injury or suspension.

Our advice is to stay on the safe side and go for the Over 2.5 Goals market. It’s reliable, very probable, and available at odds of 1 if you use the 1xbet sportsbook.
