1x2 — Away
Ipswich are in strong form (DWWWL), have a top-4 away record, and face a Sheffield Wednesday side with 5 straight losses, 0 home wins, and the worst defence in the league. Ipswich's attack (1.74 goals/game) should be too much for a Wednesday side conceding over 2 goals per game.
BTTS — No
Sheffield Wednesday have failed to score in 1 of their last 5, average just 0.5 goals/game at home, and face an Ipswich defence with a 37% clean sheet rate. Ipswich rarely concede against bottom teams.
Over/Under 2.5 — Under
While Ipswich are capable of scoring multiple goals, Wednesday's lack of attacking threat and Ipswich's solid defence may keep this under 3 goals. Both teams' over 2.5% is around 50-58%, so this is marginal.
Match Analysis
Ipswich travel to Hillsborough as heavy favourites against a Sheffield Wednesday side in complete freefall. Wednesday have lost five straight, are winless at home all season, and have the league's worst defence. Ipswich, meanwhile, are pushing for promotion with excellent recent form and a solid away record. Expect Ipswich to control the match, create more chances, and likely keep a clean sheet against a goal-shy Wednesday side.
