Ipswich Town - West Bromwich Albion predictions

Though Ipswich Town are more likely to win this, an away win would only be slightly surprising. It’s a relatively balanced matchup, which usually means we’ll see some exciting football.

West Bromwich Albion appear severely unprepared for a clash with Ipswich Town, to the point of being considered hard underdogs. We would consider even a draw a success, so the long 3.61 odds for an away win bit seem fitting.

Ipswich Town are coming on the back of a narrow defeat in their recent away game at Preston North End. Most Championship betting predictions were quite optimistic about their chances going in, but they were behind throughout the match and eventually ended the game one goal behind.

The visiting team played a game at home last round against Birmingham City, with pre-match betting odds favouring them heavily at around 5.21. They initially failed to press their advantage and spent a good chunk of the game in a stalemate, but eventually took the lead and won 1:0.

The visitors will likely miss the support of having a home-field advantage. Their latest 3 home games were marked by more than 5 goals in total and it remains to be seen what they can do to extend the positive trend away from home as well.

Earlier in the season, Ipswich Town lost an away game against The Baggies, though it was with a relatively small goal difference. Most betting predictions agree that things will go differently this time, especially with the 2.14 odds for a home win in mind.

Both teams will be able to field their strongest lineups this Saturday, with no injuries or suspensions to worry about.

The best choice for this fixture is quite easy to figure out – an Under 2.5 Goals bet at the odds of 1.81. It’s an almost guaranteed win that’s not too bad in the value department either.
