Our prediction for this League 1 match:
Following a 2-0 loss to MK Dons, Shrewsbury Town will be aiming to return to winning ways when they take on Ipswich Town on Matchday 42. The Shrews head into the season finale with the lack of motivation as they managed to survive, and, as a result, the odds for home win have been dropping. Both Janneh and Daniels are pushing for a start, speaking of the home team. The Tractor Boys, on the other hand, aim to keep their playoffs hopes alive.
Ipswich Town face a must-win game against Shrewsbury, and we predict that they will leave their hearts on the field. Since the Shrews suit the Tractor Boys, punters from all around the globe can find value in betting on the promotion-chasing visitors. The likes of Kyle Edwards, Kayden Jackson, George Edmundson, and Lee Evans have been struggling with injuries of late, speaking of the visiting side.
