Recent form

Ipswich Town

Ipswich Town's recent form has been concerning, with the team struggling to find consistency in the Premier League. They have managed only one win in their last six matches, a 2-1 away victory against Bournemouth, whilst suffering three defeats and securing two draws. The Tractor Boys have been involved in some high-scoring encounters, notably their 4-2 home loss to Nottingham Forest, contributing to their average of 3.17 total goals per game. Defensively, Ipswich have been vulnerable, conceding 11 goals in their last six matches and failing to keep a clean sheet in their last 14 games across all competitions. Their goal difference of -3 over the recent six-game period and their current 18th position in the league table with just 21 points from 32 games highlight the team's struggles this season, suggesting they are in a relegation battle.

Arsenal

Arsenal have been in impressive form recently, showcasing their resilience and attacking prowess. The Gunners are currently unbeaten in their last 10 matches, a streak that has propelled them to second place in the Premier League table. Their recent run includes four wins and two draws in their last six games, with a particularly notable victory against Real Madrid in the Champions League. Arsenal have been solid defensively, conceding only 0.67 goals per game in their last six matches, whilst maintaining a respectable scoring rate of 1.67 goals per game. The team's ability to keep clean sheets in two of these six games highlights their defensive stability. Interestingly, Arsenal's matches have been evenly split between high and low-scoring affairs, with 50% of their recent games featuring over 2.5 goals. The Gunners' consistent performances have kept them firmly in the title race, with 63 points from 32 games suggesting they are genuine contenders for the Premier League crown.

Recent home/away form

Ipswich Town

Ipswich Town's recent home form has been dire, with the Tractor Boys suffering a devastating run of six consecutive defeats at Portman Road. Their defensive frailties have been brutally exposed, conceding a staggering 20 goals in these matches, whilst only managing to find the net five times themselves. Two particularly high-scoring encounters stand out: a 6-0 drubbing at the hands of Manchester City and a 4-1 loss to Tottenham Hotspur. The team's inability to keep a clean sheet in any of these games, coupled with the fact that 83% of the matches saw over 2.5 goals, highlights their struggles at both ends of the pitch. With an average of 4.17 total goals per game, Ipswich's home fixtures have certainly not lacked excitement, albeit mostly for the wrong reasons from their perspective.

Arsenal

Arsenal's recent away form has been impressive, with the Gunners remaining unbeaten in their last six matches on the road. The North London side have shown resilience, securing three wins and three draws, whilst maintaining a solid defensive record by conceding only 0.67 goals per game. A standout performance came in their Champions League clash against PSV Eindhoven, where Arsenal recorded a resounding 7-1 victory, showcasing their attacking prowess. This high-scoring affair significantly boosted their goals scored average to 2.17 per game. Despite the majority of their away matches (67%) featuring under 2.5 goals, Arsenal have demonstrated their ability to grind out results, as evidenced by their draws against tough opponents like Manchester United and Everton. The team's defensive solidity is further highlighted by their two clean sheets in this six-game stretch, contributing to their positive goal difference of 9.
