Ipswich Town vs Sheffield Wednesday Match Preview, Predictions, and Betting Tips: Wednesday Seeking Revenge for November Defeat

Match Preview – 15:00 Kick-Off at Portman Road, Ipswich

Ipswich Town’s 1-0 defeat to Rotherham on Saturday was their first defeat in 3 in the Championship – in fact, the Tractor Boys have lost just 3 in their last 15 games. However, it must be noted that they have won just 4 of those 15 games too, with 8 draws affecting the points haul you would expect from such a run. Nobody has drawn more games in the Championship than Ipswich Town this season (16).

Sheffield Wednesday need just 1 more win to secure a Play-Off place and Carlos Carvalhal’s team are on a 5 game winning streak, closing out the 2016/17 in style. That positive sequence came off the back of a 4 game stretch without a win. Wednesday have the joint 3rd best defensive record in the Championship this season.

A late goal from Luke Chambers snatched all 3 points for Ipswich Town in a 2-1 win at Hillsborough when the sides last met in early November. Read our Ipswich Town vs Sheffield Wednesday betting tips and selected bookmaker odds below.

Ipswich Town vs Sheffield Wednesday Predictions

Ipswich Town had an impressive 3-1 win over Newcastle United last time they played at home and they are unbeaten in 7 Championship games at Portman Road. They have only kept 1 clean sheet in their last 8 games and their splendid win over The Magpies last week was followed by a shocking 1-0 defeat to bottom of the table Rotherham. Sheffield Wednesday have been picking up a lot of narrow wins but they might have to settle for a draw here.

William Hill’s odds of 23/10 for the draw look good for a standalone outright bet. You can boost that to 15/4 if you select draw/both teams to score with the same bookmaker.
