Ipswich Town vs Bournemouth Premier League Prediction Match Details
The Premier League matchday 15 actions continue with Ipswich Town and Bournemouth meeting at Portman Road in an early kickoff on Sunday afternoon. Can the Tractor Boys get their first Premier League win at home?
Ipswich Town Preview & Form
Ipswich Town’s struggles continue since arriving in the top flight following their impressive back-to-back automatic promotions from League One to the Premier League. The newly promoted boys are currently winless in their last three matches, having failed to build on their surprising only league victory against Ange Postecoglou’s side. They have suffered defeats in each of their last two consecutive league games against Nottingham Forest and Crystal Palace by a narrow 1-0 scoreline, with the defeat further widening their gap for safety. Currently, Ipswich sits 18th in the league standings with nine points, three points adrift of the safety zone. Kieran McKenna’s men will need to put in work together in the defense in this game, having failed to keep a clean sheet in each of their last ten matches.
Ipswich Town are yet to give their home fans a win in the Premier League match since arriving in the top flight. The last time out at home, Kieran McKenna’s men suffered a narrow defeat against Crystal Palace in their midweek clash.
Bournemouth Preview & Form
Bournemouth continues to make remarkable performances in the league, as they have surprisingly beaten Tottenham, Manchester City, and Arsenal at home this season and will make the trip to Portman Road in good spirits. The Cherries picked up another huge victory in their midweek clash by beating Spurs 1-0 at the Vitality Stadium. The victory propelled them to ninth place in the table, and they are just five points away from the Champions League qualification places. The Cherries have won three of their last five matches, and they will be hoping to build on this against struggling Ipswich.
The Cherries away record this season has been poor, as they have only recorded two wins in their opening seven games. Andoni Iraola will hope his side can build on their last impressive 4-2 victory over Wolverhampton at the Molineux Stadium, with the result ending a four-match trip winless run in the league. However, the last three road games for the Cherries have ended with both team’s scoring results.
