The 31st round of the English Championship will feature a match between Ipswich Town and Wolverhampton on Saturday at Portman Road. I recommend placing a bet on the outcome of this match, as it offers good odds.
Match Preview
In their last match, Ipswich Town pulled off an impressive 2-1 away victory over Bournemouth, breaking a streak of four consecutive defeats. This win was a much-needed relief and marked only the third time in the last 11 matches that they managed to concede fewer than two goals. However, despite the victory, Ipswich remains in the relegation zone, still 9 points adrift of the safety zone in 17th place. Over the past 11 rounds, they’ve won just once, with 2 draws and 8 losses.
On the other hand, Wolverhampton is building momentum with back-to-back wins. First, they triumphed over Southampton away (2-1), and then narrowly defeated West Ham at home (1-0). This marks the third winning streak of the season for the Wolves. Additionally, they are unbeaten in their last three Premier League matches, including a 1-1 draw with Everton. Wolverhampton currently sits in 17th place, holding a comfortable 9-point cushion above the relegation zone. In their last 7 matches, they’ve secured 4 wins and 1 draw, with only 2 losses.
