The starting line-ups for each team are listed from their last match in this tournament.
Tottenham
The Londoners have claimed five victories in the current championship, four of which were by a large margin. In the last round, Aston Villa suffered from the attacking prowess of Ange Postecoglou's charges, falling to Tottenham 4-1 at home. Nevertheless, the club is currently only in seventh place, trailing the top four by just two points. It's worth noting that Tottenham boasts the best attacking line in the championship with 22 goals scored.
Forwards Richarlison and Wilson Odobere, as well as defenders Cristian Romero and Micky van de Ven, will miss the match due to injuries.
- At least three goals have been scored in 5 of Tottenham's last 6 Premier League games.
- The club conceded the first goal in 6 of their last 8 Premier League encounters.
- The Londoners have won the first half in 12 out of their last 15 home matches in the championship.
Ipswich
Only Wolverhampton and Ipswich have yet to win a single game in the 2024/25 Premier League season. These teams are in the relegation zone, with Kieran McKenna's side only two points behind the safe 17th place. In the last round, the club played to a draw at home against Leicester (1:1). However, prior to that, the team suffered three consecutive Premier League defeats.
Midfielder Jack Taylor, defenders Jacob Greaves and Axel Tuanzebe, and forward Chiedozie Ogbene are sidelined due to injuries. Midfielder Calvin Phillips will miss the match due to suspension.
- Both teams have scored in 5 of Ipswich's last 6 Premier League matches.
- The club hasn't won the first half in any of the 10 matches in this Premier League season (5 draws and 5 losses).
Tottenham vs Ipswich: Match Prediction
It's hard to see how the visitors could take points from the hosts. Although Tottenham's play has been inconsistent, they can challenge any opponent on their home turf. In their last 11 home league matches, Tottenham has secured 8 victories, with only three losses against formidable opponents – Manchester City and Arsenal (twice).
It's also noteworthy that Ange Postecoglou's men are highly prolific at their own ground. In the last 17 home games in the Premier League, the club has scored at least two goals on 14 occasions. Additionally, the team is particularly strong in the second half. In the last 15 home Premier League matches, Tottenham has scored two or more goals in the second half 10 times. Conversely, Ipswich conceded two goals in the second half in their last two away league matches against Brentford and West Ham, two other London teams.
My prediction is "2nd Half: Tottenham Over 1.5 Goals" with odds of 1.9.
