Best Tip: Over 1.5 goals

It's a prediction based on each side's recent form stats, as well as historical records when they go head-to-head. We give it a probability of 76%. Bookmakers have it at 1.29.

Goal Statistics

Norwich City's defensive record is very strong, P. Clement's men having conceded 1 or less in 8 consecutive Championship matches. An underwhelming PG rating of 1.3 for Ipswich Town makes sense in this context.
