Our prediction for this Premier League match:
Tuesday’s football game between Ipswich Town and Crystal Palace will open round 14 of the new Premier League campaign. The Tractor Boys aim to recover from a 1-0 loss to Nottingham Forest and a triumph over Palace should see them escape the relegation zone. Both Chiedozie Ogbene and George Hirst are sidelined with injuries, but there are no suspended players in the home team.
The Eagles, on the other hand, aim to put an end to their four-game winless run in the Premier League. As both Crystal Palace and Ipswich Town will go for a triumph in the midweek clash, we believe that there is a big value in betting on both teams to score. There are no fresh injury worries in the away team, but Chadi Riad, Kamada, Wharton, Franca, and Umeh-Chibueze continue to miss out with injuries. Fit-again forward Eddie Nketiah is pushing for a start.
Highlighted Player (Eberechi Eze):
Eberechi Eze is a talented football player who was born in Greenwich, England on June 29, 1998. Eze started his youth career at Millwall and in the summer of 2016 he moved to Queens Park Rangers, signing a one-year contract with the capital club.
Eze scored 4 goals in 42 appearances for the Hoops in the 2018/2019 Championship campaign, while providing 4 assists for his teammates.His main position is attacking midfield, but he is capable of playing as both right and left midfielder as well. Eze is a footballer of Nigerian descent, but he has yet to make his debut for the Super Eagles in international matches.
Given his place of birth, the 173-cm tall midfielder was eligible to play for the England U20 team and he made his debut for the Three Lions on October 11, 2018 in a 2-1 victory over Italy. His preferred foot is right.
Highlighted Team (Ipswich):
Ipswich Town are an English football club that was formed in 1878. Portman Road has been the home ground of Ipswich Town since 1894 and the capacity of the venue, which was expanded in 2002, is 30,311. The Tractor Boys compete in the Championship, but they used to play in the English Premier League in the past as well. Ipswich Town last appeared in the elite division in the 2001/2002 season.
Ipswich won the FA Cup in 1978, with the team beating Arsenal (1-0) in the title game. However, the club’s biggest success came in 1981 when they outplayed AZ Alkmaar in the UEFA Cup final. It has to be noted that the Tractor Boys have yet to suffer a loss at home ground in the European competitions.
Norwich City are regarded as Ipswich Town’s bitterest rivals and it is well known that the two sides take on each other in the East Anglian derby.
