Ipswich vs Preston: Top free betting tips

On the back of two consecutive league defeats, Preston North End take on Ipswich Town in their next league fixture on Saturday, 7 October. The Boys enter Portman Road after resuming their winning form against Hull City.

Match result prediction: Ipswich to win

Ipswich Town are undefeated in their last eight fixtures in the Championship and EFL Cup and won seven of them. On the other hand, Preston North End have gone winless in their previous three league outings while winning the previous two in a row. Adding more, the Tractor Boys are also unbeaten against Preston in the last five H2Hs at Portman Road. Based on these statistics, we predict Ipswich to have all three points in this game.

Both teams to score prediction: Yes

Following their impressive record in the recent league games, Ipswich will be confident to get on the scoresheet of this game. However, they have managed only one clean sheet in their last five games at Portman Road. On the other hand, Preston has also scored in all of their previous five away matches, conceding goals in three games. Adding more, three of the recent five H2Hs of these two sides at Portman Road have also featured BTTS outcomes. Given these statistics, we expect goals from both ends of the field in this game.

Correct score prediction: 3-1 to Ipswich

Ipswich have scored more than once in only one of their last five home H2Hs against Preston. However, they have been impressive recently by scoring at least three goals in each of their last five matches at Portman Road. On the other hand, the Lilywhites have notched just one goal in three of their recent five road fixtures. Preston North have also conceded seven goals in just their last two league outings. Following these statistics, we predict a comfortable 3-1 lead for Ipswich in this encounter.
