Ipswich vs Leicester Preview
Ipswich Town welcome Leicester City in an important Championship encounter as the home side chase an automatic promotion spot. Given Leicester's poor form, we predict a 2-1 win for the promotion-chasing hosts. The Tractor Boys head into this game in strong form with three wins in their last five matches (LLWWW) and an impressive 1.90 points per game overall. Their home record is particularly strong, collecting 2.60 points per match at Portman Road with an 80% win rate. Kieran McKenna’s side score 1.80 goals per game while conceding just 1.10, and their defensive record at home is excellent, allowing only 0.20 goals per match and keeping 80% clean sheets.
Leicester, on the other hand, are going through a very poor spell. The Foxes are winless in their last five games (LLDDL) and average only 0.30 points per game during that run. Defensively they have struggled, conceding 2.00 goals per match and keeping no clean sheets. However, their matches remain open, with 80% BTTS overall and 100% BTTS in away games. Key Leicester defender Caleb Okoli should be fit for Saturday's game despite picking up a knock in a 2-0 loss to Norwich City.
Historically Leicester have had the upper hand with 7 wins in 15 H2H meetings, but current form clearly favors Ipswich. Considering Ipswich's excellent home form and Leicester’s poor recent results, Home Win seems like the best betting option for this Championship matchup, alongside Both Teams to Score (Leicester have BTTS in 80% of matches), and Ipswich Over 1.5.
This Championship match will be played on Saturday, 7 March 2026 at 15:00.
