Match Analysis

Ipswich have had a mixed bag of performances in their last three fixtures. They secured a crucial away victory against Bournemouth, winning 2-1, but suffered defeats to Nott'm Forest and Crystal Palace. This inconsistency is reflected in their goal statistics, as they have scored an average of 0.8 goals and conceded a worrying 3.6 goals per game over their last five matches. With no clean sheets in recent outings, Ipswich's defensive vulnerabilities could be a decisive factor. Meanwhile, Wolves have shown signs of resilience in their recent games, picking up two wins against West Ham and Southampton, and drawing against Everton. Their performances have been bolstered by a defense that has managed two clean sheets in the last five matches. Offensively, Wolves have averaged 1.0 goal per game over the same period, slightly better than their opponents. Key advanced metrics highlight Wolves' expected goals scored at 1.246, indicating they are creating decent chances, which could prove vital against Ipswich's leaky defense.

Final Prediction

Wolves appear to have the edge in this encounter, thanks to their slightly better form and more solid defensive record compared to Ipswich. A key factor to watch will be Wolves' ability to capitalize on Ipswich's defensive frailties, which could determine the outcome of this crucial relegation battle. Football fans should keep an eye on Wolves' ability to create and convert goal-scoring opportunities, a factor that might ultimately swing the game in their favor.
