Nottingham Forest vs. Ipswich: Town are good value for money

Ipswich Are Better Than Their League Position Suggests

1 week ago 0 73

Nottingham Forest and Ipswich Town meet at the City Ground in a clash of contrasting form. Forest are aiming to halt their losing streak, while Ipswich look to build on their resilient performances. Here’s our preview and betting analysis for this intriguing encounter.

Nottingham Forest: Struggling to Find Form

Forest come into this match on the back of consecutive defeats. After a disappointing 1-3 loss at home to Newcastle, they were comprehensively outplayed by Arsenal in the capital last weekend. Manager Nuno Espirito Santo raised eyebrows by starting Chris Wood on the bench and leaving Morgan Gibbs-White out of the squad entirely. The result? Forest failed to register a single shot on target.

However, Forest have a strong record against newly promoted teams. They are unbeaten in their last eight such matches, winning the most recent four. For this game, Anthony Elanga, Gibbs-White, and Elliot Anderson are all doubtful due to fitness concerns.

Ipswich Town: Resilient and Underrated

Town displayed grit and quality in their 1-1 draw against Manchester United last Sunday. Despite conceding within the first two minutes, they fought back brilliantly, with Omari Hutchinson scoring a stunning equalizer. Town even looked the better side for much of the game.

Ipswich have shared the points in six of their 12 matches this season, with 11 of those games featuring goals conceded. While George Hirst and Chiedozie Ogbene are sidelined with injuries, Kalvin Phillips and Ben Johnson remain doubtful.

Why:

Town are in better form, picking up points in 50% of their matches since promotion.
