Our 3 Predictions for Oxford United vs Ipswich Town

  • 1st Prediction : Ipswich Town To Win – 8/15
  • 2nd Prediction : Over 2.5 Goals Scored – 5/6
  • 3rd Prediction : Both Teams To Score – Yes – 10/11

First Prediction For Oxford United vs Ipswich Town – Ipswich Town To Win – 8/15

Another match that on paper looks a dead cert of a bet, and the oddsmakers do show that with their pricing. Ipswich Town are on an unbeaten run of 6 games, whereas their hosts, Oxford United have not won in 5 matches. The home side are picking up points regularly though and could play spoilers in this match with a draw, but such is the momentum of Ipswich you would feel that this is another game where they prove too much for their opponent. Both played on Tuesday night, so the turnaround and travel could be the only thing that stops Town as they march up the table.

Second Prediction For Oxford United vs Ipswich Town – Over 2.5 Goals Scored – 5/6

Even though Oxford United have not been wining games, they have been involved in high scoring games at home. In their last 3 matches there have been 9 goals, so the average of 3 per game may well hold up in this match too. They have scored 6 goals in the last 6 home games, so again a goal a game average which shows they are not playing all out defensive football as they try and move away from the drop zone. Ipswich Town are scoring for fun right now and in their last 3 away days have scored 10 times, this is a huge factor in this bet as this average will push the chances of reaching the total should be passed with ease.

Third Prediction For Oxford United vs Ipswich Town – Both Teams To Score – Yes – 10/11

After establishing that both can keep up the average they are currently scoring at, this again should be a straightforward bet. Looking at the wider picture shows that Oxford have scored 8 of their 18 goals at home, whilst conceding 24 overall with 12 of those at home. Ipswich’s current scoring spree has seen their total rise considerably. Away from home they have scored 13 of their 28, whilst 7 of their conceded total of 16 has been away. Basically there is goals in this game, and both should hit the net at least once.

Full Preview Of The Game: Last Results and Head to Head

Oxford United are a team that is so nearly there. They are producing good performances, but somehow end up either losing games, or letting points slip away in the form of just drawing games. They should be in a better position, but they are not. There does not seem to be any crisis mode yet, but if this current form continues through Christmas it could turn that way. Gary Rowett seems on the brink of turning things around, and finding the balance between defence ad attack is the main issue. Cameron Brannigan has 4 goals from midfield, and is one of the star players so far this season. That said it is the form of the defenders that is largely keeping Oxford afloat, albeit they are treading water. Jack Currie, Ciaron Brown, and Michal Helik are the mainstays at the back, and each have yet to chip in with a goal as they concentrate on their defensive duties.

Ipswich Town are finally in the area of the table that they should be, and are definitely heading in the right direction. It has taken a while for Kieran McKenna to find his feet again at this level. After being in the headlights of speculation surrounding his future, he is focused on the job in hand and has his side looking up. Marcelino Nunez, the 25 year old Chilean, has 3 goals from 5 starts, and is starting to look the part. Azor Matusiwa is one to watch in midfield, his workman like performances have yet to bring a goal, but offer more in the way of getting the team moving. Jack Clarke and George Hirst are busy in attack with 11 goals between them are helping the rise and change in form. Town are back, and this should be another game that keeps them on the right path.
