Ipswich Town vs Crystal Palace Preview – Premier League Prediction & Betting Tips 03/12/2024
Ipswich Town vs Crystal Palace Premier League Prediction Match Details
Premier League action returns to midweek as Ipswich Town welcomes Crystal Palace to Portman Road for matchday 14. The match is considered a relegation battle between two struggling teams.
Ipswich Preview & Form
Ipswich Town has struggled with form since arriving in the top flight following their impressive back-to-back automatic promotions from League One to the Premier League. Despite some decent performances, they have failed to get the right result in the new league, having suffered their sixth defeat of the season in their last match. The Tractor Boys were narrowly beaten 1-0 by Nottingham Forest at the weekend, courtesy of a second-half penalty from Chris Wood. The result ended the newly promoted boys’ three-match unbeaten run, during which they secured their first long-awaited victory against Tottenham. The Tractor Boys are sitting in the relegation zone, 19th in the league table, with nine points. 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 nine matches.
Ipswich Town are yet to taste a win in their Premier League match at Portman Road since arriving, although they claimed a creditable 1-1 draw with Manchester United in their last home fixture. Four of the last five Ipswich games have produced both teams scoring.
Crystal Palace Preview & Form
Oliver Glasner helped Crystal Palace move away from relegation to a top-half finish towards the end of last season, but the Eagles have struggled badly at the start of this campaign, having recorded just one win so far in the league. Palace has now gone four games without a win since booking their round in the quarterfinal of the Carabao Cup, drawing three and losing one. The last time out at the weekend, Palace managed to snatch a draw against Newcastle United at home, thanks to a 94th-minute wonder strike by Daniel Munoz to rescue a point. Palace sits in 17th place in the league standings with the same points as Wolves and Ipswich, sitting in the relegation zone.
Palace has also struggled with their away games this season, as they are yet to register a win in all their trip games in the league. They have lost thrice and suffered defeats thrice. Their last three away games have produced both teams’s scores and at least three goals.
