Stoke City Ipswich Town betting prediction


Betting suggestion:

This game has some tendency to be unbalanced, since it puts on the field teams that fight for different objectives in this season. Stoke City plays at home and has a high-quality offensive and defensive sector as Ipswich Town struggles to get out of the last positions and has several flaws in its game model, which will be crucial for an outcome in favor of the locals. Having said this and taking into account these factors, we believe that betting in favor of Stoke City in this game is a good option.

Preview
Stoke City and Ipswich Town face at Britannia Stadium, in a match for the 21th round of the Championship. There is no record of official head‑to‑heads between these two teams in the last 3 years. The last time they met, on 23‑02‑2008, the match ended with the final score: Stoke City (1‑0) Ipswich Town. The home/away factor is worth special atention, since although this is a match between 12th and 24th of the league table, it’s also a match between the 17th best team in home matches and the 20th best in away matches.

Analysis Stoke

After 6 wins, 9 draws and 5 losses, the home team is in the 12th position, havinf won 27 points so far. In the last match, they have tied in an away match against Reading by (2‑2), after in the previous match they have won (2‑1) at home, against Derby County. This is a team that maintains its competitive levels in home and away matches, since they have had similar results in both conditions. For the league, Stoke City won 15 points out of 30 possible points, after 4 wins, 3 draws and 3 losses in the last 10 home matches. In their home league matches the most frequent result at half‑time was the 1‑0 (4 out of 10 matches). Their offense has scored frequently, since they have scored goals in 7 of the last 10 matches for this competition. They have conceded the first goal in 10 of their 20 matches for this competition, and have never been able to turn the score around.

Stoke City heads to this game with a 2-2 draw against Reading, adding the excellent series of seven straight games without losing in this competition: the goals were scored by Ince and Afobe. However, it is important to point out that the home team is going through a difficult phase at home, having only 4 wins in the 10 games played. Coach Gary Rowett usually lines up an offensive team, organized in the 4-3-3, with Afobe as the most offensive reference. However, right-back Tom Ince is one of Stoke City's top scorers with 5 goals scored. For this game the coach can not count on Etebo, suspended besides Pieters and Afellay, these with physical problems.

Confirmed Lineup: Jack Butland, Cuco Martina, Erik Pieters, Ryan Shawcross, Ashley Williams, Ryan Woods, Joe Allen, Sam Clucas, Thomas Ince, Benik Afobe, Saido Berahino.
Coach: M. O'Neill.

Analysis Ipswich

The away team is currently in the 24th position of the league, with 11 points won, after 1 win, 8 draws and 11 losses. In the penultimate match, they lost in a home match against Bristol City, by (2‑3). In the last match, they lost in an away match against Nottingham Forest, by (2‑0). This is a team that usually maintains its competitive level in home and away matches, with 9 goals scored and 15 conceded at home, against 8 goals scored and 20 conceded in away matches. In the last 10 away league matches Ipswich Town has a record of 1 win, 2 draws and 7 losses, so they have won 5 points out of 30 possible. In their away league matches, the most frequent final score was the 2‑0 (4 out of 10 matches). Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded at least one goal in each of the last 10 matches for this competition. In their away matches there is a tendency for goals, since 9 of the last 10 matches for this competition have ended with Over 1,5 goals. In 20 matches for this competition, they have conceded the first goal 13 times and have only turned the score around in 1. In the last 10 away matches for this competition there is 1 period that stands out: they have scored 3 of their 8 goals between minutes (31'‑45').

Ipswich had a poor start to the season and is now the last placed. We remember that the team has not won for nine games in a row, and in the last game it lost against Nottingham Forest by 2-0. In this away game, coach Paul Lambert should line up the usual 4-4-2, benefiting the defensive organization and successive counterattacks. Analyzing the away team it is possible to notice that the Englishman Freddie Sears is one of the cornerstones in the team: he is the best scorer with 4 goals scored. There are no major absences for this game.

Confirmed Lineup: Dean Gerken, Jordan Spence, Jonas Knudsen, Luke Chambers, Matthew Pennington, Trevoh Chalobah, Jon Nolan, Flynn Downes, Jordan Roberts, Jack Lankester, Freddie Sears.
Coach: J. McGreal.
