Wolves 1-2 Ipswich Town

Current streaks

Recent form

Wolves

Wolves are currently experiencing a concerning dip in form, having lost their last three Premier League matches, which has seen them slip to 19th in the table. Their defensive frailties have been particularly evident, conceding 10 goals in these three defeats, including a heavy 4-0 loss to Everton. Despite this recent slump, Wolves have shown they can be potent in attack, scoring 11 goals in their last six games and netting four times in an impressive away win at Fulham. The team's matches have been high-scoring affairs, with 83% of their last six games seeing over 2.5 goals and both teams scoring in two-thirds of these fixtures. However, their sole clean sheet in this period, a 2-0 victory over Southampton, offers a glimmer of hope for defensive improvement as they look to climb out of the relegation zone.

Ipswich Town

Ipswich Town are currently experiencing a challenging period in the Premier League, sitting 18th in the table with just 9 points from 15 games. The Tractor Boys are on a concerning three-match losing streak, having failed to score in two of those defeats. Their last victory came in an impressive 2-1 away win against Tottenham Hotspur, which stands out as a bright spot in their recent form. Ipswich have struggled to keep clean sheets, with their last one coming 11 games ago. Despite their difficulties, they've shown some resilience, managing to score in four of their last six matches and securing draws against strong opponents like Manchester United and Leicester. However, their goal-scoring average of 0.83 per game in the last six matches indicates a need for improved attacking output if they hope to climb out of the relegation zone.

Recent home/away form

Wolves

Wolves have been struggling at home recently, with their last six matches at Molineux yielding just one win and one draw against four losses. The team has experienced a concerning run of three consecutive home defeats, conceding two goals in each of those matches. Despite their defensive woes, Wolves have managed to find the back of the net in all six games, scoring at least once. The most recent fixture against Bournemouth stands out as a particularly high-scoring affair, with six goals in total. Interestingly, 83% of Wolves' home matches have seen both teams score, and the same percentage has produced over 2.5 goals, suggesting that their games are often entertaining for neutral spectators. However, with only one clean sheet in this period and an average of two goals conceded per game, Wolves' defence clearly needs improvement if they hope to climb from their precarious 19th position in the league.

Ipswich Town

Ipswich Town's away form in the Premier League has been a mixed bag, with the Tractor Boys struggling to find consistency on the road. Their last six away matches have yielded just one win, two draws, and three losses, indicating a challenging spell for the team. Notably, Ipswich have been involved in some high-scoring affairs, particularly the 4-3 thriller against Brentford and the 4-1 defeat to West Ham, showcasing their ability to get on the scoresheet but also highlighting defensive vulnerabilities. The team have managed to score in five of their last six away games, averaging 1.17 goals per match, but have conceded a concerning 1.83 goals per game. Their sole clean sheet came in a goalless draw against Brighton, while their most impressive result was a 2-1 victory over Tottenham Hotspur. Despite their struggles, Ipswich Town have shown they can be competitive away from home, with 67% of their matches seeing both teams score and an even split between games going over and under 2.5 goals.
