Key factors

What will decide this match?

Home advantage first, then expected goals and the factor with the most influence on this match.

  1. Home advantage

    Edge: Even

    Home support is worth about a fifth of a goal to Ipswich. That narrows the gap but does not cancel Brighton's extra quality.

  2. Expected goals

    Edge: Goals

    2.9 expected goals is above the league average, and over 2.5 goals lands 55% of the time in our simulations.

  3. Quality gap

    Edge: Brighton

    Brighton rate clearly higher and the draw is only 23%. If they score first, the match should go their way.

Team set-up

How will the two teams line up?

Confirmed line-ups are published about an hour before kick-off.

Home · promoted

Ipswich Town

As a promoted club, Ipswich will focus on keeping it tight at Portman Road. Their best chances tend to come from corners, free kicks and quick breaks.

Away

Brighton & Hove Albion

Brighton are well drilled and have enough quality up front to punish mistakes on their trip to Portman Road. Everything they do starts with control of midfield.

Risk radar

What could change the prediction?

The news that would move our numbers before kick-off.

  • If Brighton name a weakened XI

    Rotation or a missing key player would cut several points from their win chance. Line-ups are out an hour before kick-off.

  • If Ipswich score first

    The favourite has to chase the game, and both the draw and the upset become much more likely.

  • If a red card comes in the first hour

    Going down to ten men changes the expected-goals picture completely, whichever side it hits.
