Ipswich Town form and stats

Let's have a look at how Ipswich Town performed last season in the League One: They landed a 9th position in the league table after playing out 19 victories, 12 draws and 15 defeats. In total they scored 46 and conceded 46 goals in these matches. The numbers for away games only are: Won 7 - drew 7 and lost 9 with 21/28 goals scored/conceded.

This game can not go any worse than the last one, a Carabao Cup home defeat versus Newport County with 0-1 on the scoreboard. Midfield player Idris El Mizouni was the top player of the team with a match rating of 7.82/10. Mizouni hit two key passes, dribled passed the opponent 1 of 2 times and had 95 successful passes (of 98 total).
