Coventry are eager to cement top position in the standings and given Ipswich's recent struggles on the road, our prediction points toward a 2-1 home win. Frank Lampard's men head into this clash after a hard-fought 1-0 victory over Swansea City, a result that extended their impressive momentum and kept their perfect 100% home record intact (5/5 wins, 3.00 PPG). With strong underlying numbers—2.31 expected goals at home and 2.20 goals scored per match—the Sky Blues continue to dominate at the CBS Arena. Their defensive consistency has also improved, keeping clean sheets in 40% of home outings. The good news for the hosts is that defender Jay Dasilva returns from suspension.
Ipswich Town, on the other hand, head into Monday's clash following a 0-0 Boxing Day draw with Millwall, a result that highlighted their recent away struggles (just 1.33 PPG and 1.17 goals conceded on the road). Despite strong season-long metrics—2.40 average goals per game and 1.70 expected goals overall—the Tractor Boys have lacked sharpness away from home, failing to win any of their last three away league fixtures. Still, their counter-attacking threat remains dangerous. There are no fresh injury worries in the visiting team.
Given Coventry's excellent home record, we are tempted to place our bets on Home Win, alongside Over 1.5 and Over 2.5 goals as both sides average 2.8 goals per game combined.
This Championship match will be played on Monday 29 December 2025 at 18:00.
