Ipswich Town v Crystal Palace Odds & Match Preview
Kick-off: 7.30pm UK Time, Tuesday 3rd December 2024
Ipswich Town and Crystal Palace both sit in the lower echelons of the Premier League table with goal difference alone separating the two sides after thirteen rounds of league fixtures.
Rude awakening
Ipswich Town received something of a rude awakening when their three-game unbeaten run was brought to a standstill by Nottingham Forest on Saturday afternoon, the Tricky Trees scoring the only goal of the game at the City Ground and hauling themselves to within a single point of Manchester City in the league standings. Previous to this, Ipswich had shared the spoils with Leicester City and Manchester United, either side of an excellent 2-1 win over Tottenham Hotspur in North London, however they have now slipped back into the relegation zone as a result of their latest setback.
Best chance
McKenna’s side are still in search of their first home Premier League win of the campaign – the only top-flight still to claim a maximum points haul in front of their own home fans this term – although the visit of Crystal Palace tonight presents the East Anglian outfit with perhaps their best chance of ending this unwanted record.
Lowly position
Crystal Palace’s lowly position in the Premier League table fails to give a true impression of their recent form, the Eagles having lost just one of their last five league outings. Nevertheless, three of these outings ended in stalemate, the most recent of these being a 1-1 draw at home to Newcastle United. The South London side have avoided defeat in each of their last three away games across competitions – beating Aston Villa 2-1 in the League Cup before drawing 2-2 at Wolverhampton Wanderers, 2-2 at Aston Villa in the league.
Draw specialists
Nevertheless, it is Ipswich Town who have very much taken on the role of draw specialists in the Premier League this season – especially on home soil – and neither keeper should expect to add to their clean sheet totals tonight. However, Crystal Palace have been showing something of a clinical edge on their travels of late and we envisage the visitors edging their way to victory in what has there makings of a very evenly fought affair.
Back Crystal Palace to win and both teams to score at best odds of 15/4
