Ipswich vs Wolverhampton Predictions

• Wolves have seen both teams score in three straight games
• Ipswich have scored in all 10 games this term
• Both sides have bigger priorities and rotation is likely for the pair

Pair have bigger priorities

These two sides each have bigger aspirations than a Carabao Cup run this term. If both get their wish, this could well be a Premier League fixture next term. While Wolves are bidding to avoid the drop, Ipswich are seeking back-to-back promotions.

With those targets in mind, expect major changes for the two sides going into this EFL Cup third-round tie. Unfortunately for Wolves, a lack of depth means they are unlikely to have much of an edge over their Championship opponents.

However, the visitors do have an in-form forward, with Sasa Kalajdzic scoring twice this term in limited minutes. He’s made just one start so far and has been given only 16 Premier League minutes as he works his way back from injury. This clash is a great opportunity for the forward, who looks like a good finisher and could work his way back into the first team.

Back an even game

Ipswich progressed through the last round on penalties after a 2-2 draw with Reading and another high-scoring draw could be on the cards here.

Wolves have seen both teams score in each of their last three games, including Saturday’s 1-1 draw with Luton. Ipswich have scored in all of their 10 games this term, so they should be confident going forward.

However, with neither side desperate to progress in this competition and both teams looking fairly evenly matched, back a score draw on Tuesday night.
