Best Tip: Ipswich to win

A FA Cup victory in front of their own fans for Kieran McKenna's Ipswich team win in the win / draw / win market is our prediction. Stats suggest they have what it takes, and they should have too much for their visitors. The odds from the bookies suggest so too, and when that happens you've know you're not going against the market. A Ipswich win is the way to go, but it could be a close one.
