Ipswich to Win

Reason for tip

Ipswich’s strong home form gives them the edge in Sunday’s Old Farm derby. Kieran McKenna’s side have scored 10 goals in four home league games, averaging 2.5 per match, and remain unbeaten at Portman Road. Norwich arrive struggling for form, without a win in four, and with defensive issues that Ipswich’s attack look well-placed to exploit.

Ipswich 2-1

Reason for tip

A 2-1 Ipswich win makes appeal in the correct-score market. Norwich have conceded in 12 of their last 15 Championship games and six of their eight league outings this season have seen both teams score. All four of Norwich’s league defeats have been by a single goal, and Ipswich’s scoring power at home suggests another narrow victory here.

Ipswich Attack Can Edge Old Farm Derby

Ipswich have been in fine form going forward at Portman Road this season, and they should be backed to get the victory over Norwich in the Old Farm derby on Sunday.

Kieran McKenna’s side have scored 10 goals at home in the Championship — an average of 2.50 goals per game from four games — and will be confident of finding the net against Liam Manning’s team.

The league table supports that view. Town are 13th in the Championship, six places and two points above Norwich, having won two, drawn four and lost one of their seven games this season, while the visitors have two wins, two draws and four defeats.

Furthermore, the Tractor Boys are unbeaten in their four Championship home games this season, and that form is underpinned by their potency in attack.

By contrast, Norwich are enduring a rough spell, without a win in four Championship games and having won just one of their last six. The visitors’ defence has been far from watertight, either. The Canaries have failed to keep a clean sheet in 12 of their last 15 Championship games, with their last shutout coming against Blackburn back in August.

Ipswich may be able to edge out Norwich in a close game, with a 2-1 home win the correct-score pick. Both teams have scored in six of Norwich’s eight Championship games this season, and all of their four defeats have been by a single goal.
