Prediction: 1-1
Stoke City
Ipswich Town will look to build on back-to-back wins over Sunderland and Bristol Rovers when they welcome Stoke City to their Portman Road on Saturday afternoon. The Tractor Boys have big ambitions for the 2023/204 Championship campaign and they are likely to stick to their attacking style of play in the round 2 clash. Duo George Hirst – Conor Chaplin return to the starting XI after they were rested in the EFL Cup triumph, while there are no fresh injury concerns in the home team.
The Potters, on the other hand, kicked off the new Championship campaign in fashion, with the team outplaying Rotherham 4-1, while eliminating WBA (2-1) in the EFL Cup round 1. Anyhow, both teams to score betting option should be considered as both Stoke and Ipswich look sharp in front of goal. A man to watch in the away side will be Portugal international Andre Vidigal, who has already found his goalscoring touch.
