Portsmouth vs Ipswich Predictions

Ipswich Set to Grind Out Away Win at Fratton Park

Ipswich can pick up where they left off and win at Portsmouth on Sunday.

They are second in the Championship, 19 places and points above Portsmouth, with 12 wins, eight draws and five losses from their 25 games this season. The hosts are in 21st place, having won six, drawn seven and lost 11.

Ipswich kept up their recent winning trend with a 2-1 win over Oxford on Thursday, justifying their price of 3/10 to win the game. They have now won eight of the 13 matches in which they have been odds-on this season.

The visitors will be hopeful of scoring goals, with Ipswich having scored at least twice in three of their last four Championship games.

The hosts are having defensive problems. Portsmouth have failed to keep a clean sheet in their last ten Championship games, and it’s been five home matches since they last kept out their opponents. They have conceded in nine of their last 11 at home.

Ipswich are in good form, having won five of their last seven Championship matches. They have only lost one of their last eight and come into this game on the back of two consecutive victories.

Ipswich have been the winners of the last three Championship meetings with Portsmouth by a single goal and, with seven of the home side’s 11 reverses this season also coming by a one-goal margin, a 1-0 correct score in favour of the visitors looks like a decent bet.
