Match Analysis

Ipswich has been struggling in recent matches, failing to secure a win in their last three outings. They suffered losses against Leicester and Brentford, failing to score in both encounters, and managed a draw against Everton with a 2-2 scoreline. Ipswich's paltry average of 0.8 goals scored per game over their last five matches, coupled with a concerning 3.0 goals conceded per game, paints a picture of a team in defensive disarray, further evidenced by their lack of clean sheets. West Ham enters the match having displayed a mixed bag of results. A narrow loss to Nott'm Forest, a commendable victory against Man United, and a draw with Tottenham highlight their recent form. West Ham's ability to score and their slightly better defensive record, with an average of 1.4 goals conceded per game, give them an edge. Their 1.424 expected goals per game over the last five matches suggest they have the offensive capability to challenge Ipswich's shaky defense.

Final Prediction

West Ham holds a slight edge over Ipswich primarily due to their superior recent form and attacking potential. The Hammers' ability to exploit Ipswich's defensive vulnerabilities could be crucial in determining the outcome. Keep an eye on West Ham's attacking efforts, as their capacity to convert chances into goals might be the deciding factor in this encounter.
