Ipswich Town Team News
Since Kieran McKenna took charge of Ipswich Town in December last year, they became one of the best teams in League One (3rd tier). During the summer of 2021, they invested a lot in the squad but they weren’t a balanced squad. With McKenna, they become that.
Ipswich finished last season in 11th place, which was a huge disappointment, but now they are 2nd in the table with 42 points and 12 wins after 20 rounds. The leader Plymouth is only one point above.
With McKenna, Ipswich plays very beautiful football. They have the best attack in the league with 39 goals scored, the highest ball possession per game with 60.4%, the highest number of complete passes per game with 395, and they have the most shots on goal per game – 17.6.
The good thing in this Ipswich squad is that they don’t have one player that scored the most goals. In this team, 13 different players scored a goal this season and McKenna has a number of options in attack.
Ipswich is in a run of six games without defeat and they finished only one game this season without scoring a goal. It was at home against Lincoln.
Peterborough United Team News
Peterborough United was relegated from Championship last season and they are one of the contenders for at least the playoffs this season. They kept almost the entire squad from the last season and add a couple of good signings.
But on the pitch, Peterborough is struggling a little. They are 6th in League One but with nine defeats after 20 rounds, which is quite a lot. None of the teams in the top 18 doesn’t have nine defeats! The major problem is their results away from home where they suffered seven defeats in 10 games.
The Posh aren’t in a great run. They suffered four consecutive defeats in all competitions and have only one win in the last seven games. Peterborough has the third-best attack in the league with 35 goals scored but has a lot of problems in defence, especially when they play away from home.
They conceded 19 goals away from home and failed to keep a single clean sheet!
Their striker Jonson Clarke-Harris is in fantastic form. Two years ago he scored 31 goals in League One and now he has 12 after 20 games.
H2H
Since 2013 they have met five times in all competitions and Peterborough has three wins in contrast to Ipswich’s one win. Four games ended with BTTS and three with over 2.5 goals.
Team News and Injuries
Ipswich Town: Lee Evans, Marcus Harness, Dominic Ball, and Tyreece John-Jules are injured.
Peterborough United: Kelland Watts and Joe Randall are questionable.
Ipswich Town vs. Peterborough United Prediction
These two teams usually provide quality football always when they play. Both sides are quality attacking sides and they are the two best teams in League One in terms of the number of created chances in the league.
In our opinion, this game is great for betting on goals and we will go for that bet.
