Sheffield United host Ipswich Town looking to bounce back after a narrow 1-0 defeat to Southampton. As Ipswich are brimming with confidence following a 2-0 win over Blackburn Rovers, we predict a 1-0 away win. The Blades may be without in-form forward Thomas Cannon, though their home form has been solid with 4 wins from 6 matches at Bramall Lane. Sheffield United score 2.8 goals per home game on average but have conceded 1.2, showing vulnerability at the back. Overall, the Blades see goals in 50% of their matches and have kept clean sheets just 20% of the time, making for open contests.
The Tractor Boys, on the other hand, are unbeaten in their last 5 games, boasting 80% overall win rate and impressive defensive stats, conceding only 0.6 goals per game. At home, they are even stronger, scoring 2.29 goals per game and keeping 57% clean sheets, while their away form is more modest but still competitive.
The H2H record is tight, with Sheffield winning 5 of 12 encounters, Ipswich 3, and 4 draws. Expect a disciplined Ipswich side against a Sheffield team that thrives at home. Therefore, we are tempted to bet on Under 2.5 goals, alongside Draw and Half-Time Draw.
This Championship match will be played on Saturday 24 January 2026 at 15:00.
