Prediction: 1-0
Sheffield United
Ipswich Town and Sheffield United face each other at Portman Road in the opening match of the Championship round 5. The Tractor Boys have been performing below expectations in the early stages of the season and they have yet to record a win in the process. Even though there are no fresh injury worries in the home team, forward Jack Clarke is widely expected to return to the starting XI.
The Blades, on the other hand, are on a five-game losing run at the start of the season and given their difficulties in front of goal, we believe that the time has come for Ipswich to return to winning ways. The likes of Davies, Sachdev, Shackleton, and Arblaster are out of contention with injuries for the visiting team. You should know that under 2.5 goals have been netted in each of the previous five meetings between the two teams.
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.
