• Ipswich have won 5 of their home games in League One.

Ipswich could make it 8-games without defeat against Peterborough this weekend

Ipswich will be demanding a response from their players following the midweek 1-0 defeat at Rotherham, while Peterborough will be asking for more of the same from their players after they won 2-0 at Accrington. Ipswich haven’t lost against Peterborough in any of the duos’ last seven encounters and a win on Saturday would force a 5pt gap between the pair and could move the hosts back to the top of the table.

The hosts have actually performed better on the road this season than they have at home but Ipswich have still secured five wins in their own backyard, while Peterborough have already lost seven times on the road. Ipswich average 1.67 points per home game and have a42% win ratio at home and Peterborough have lost 47% of their away matches and average 1.07 points per away game.

The hosts have only conceded 10-goals in 12 home matches

50% of Ipswich’s home games and 40% of Peterborough’s away matches have seen both teams score, but because we are expecting a tight, tense, and competitive ninety minutes between the pair this weekend we have backed a final scoreline of 1-0 in favour of Ipswich. The hosts have kept clean sheets in 42% of their home games in League One while their guests have failed to score in 40% of their away games, adding further weight to our prediction for a 1-0 home win on Saturday.

There really isn’t much between these two clubs this season, which is why we are expecting a very close match on Saturday, and exactly 1-goal has been scored in 20% of Peterborough’s away games and the visitors have lost-to-nil in 33% of their away trips. A majority of Ipswich’s wins this campaign (8) have been obtained with a 1-goal margin and a majority of Peterborough’s defeats (5) have also had a 1-goal margin, which backs our prediction for a narrow home win this weekend.

We’re confident that Ipswich will win on Saturday and we have predicted a final scoreline of 1-0. The hoss have been solid at home this season while their guests have struggled somewhat on the road, but with this game being between two promotion rivals we are expecting a very tight and tense ninety minutes, where all of the stats point towards a narrow home victory.
