Prediction: 2-0
Ipswich Town
Saturday’s football game at the City Ground pits together Nottingham Forest and Ipswich Town, the two teams with entirely different ambitions for the 2018/2019 season. The Reds aim to secure promotion to the Premier League, whilst the Tractor Boys are desperate to secure yet another Championship survival. Forest head into the match following a thrilling 5-5 draw with Aston Villa and we predict that they are going to stick to their attacking style of play against Ipswich Town. The Tractor Boys, on the other hand, experienced all sorts of problems at the back in a 3-2 loss to Bristol City and seeing that they failed to win previous seven league games, we believe that the hosts are going to emerge triumphant in Saturday’s clash. In their last meeting at the City Ground Nottingham Forest recorded a 2-1 win over Ipswich Town.

Highlighted Player (Jack Colback):
After spending nine years at Sunderland youth academy, Jack Colback signed a loan deal with Ipswich Town on 6 August, 2009. The left-footed midfielder, who is capable of playing at left back as well, made 37 appearances for the Championship side, scoring four goals in the English second tier.
Against all odds, Colback decided to sign for Sunderland’s bitterest rivals Newcastle United on 9 June, 2014 and it has to be noted he became the first player to move directly from Sunderland to Newcastle since 1998 when Lionel Perez did the same. In 2015 Sunderland fans created a sick banner depicting Colback hanging with a noose around his neck and that caused uproar on social media.
Colback and his teammates from Newcastle dropped to the Championship at the end of the 2015/2016 season, but he decided not to leave the club. Colback scored 5 goals in 64 appearances for Newcastle United in the Premier League. He is well known for his passing skills, he rarely gives the ball away and journalist often compare him with Italy ace Andrea Pirlo.
Highlighted Team (Ipswich Town):
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.
