The League One league table might not tell the truth so early on, but it's the best truth we have so far. Ipswich Town and Accrington Stanley are placed 1st and 6th respectively.

This should be an interesting game with lots of spark and energy as both teams are well rested since they last saw competitive action. Game on!

Ipswich Town form and stats

As mentioned below, Ipswich Town are feasting on a winning streak here so far with maximum points from their first 2 League One games.

It's back home for Ipswich, who return with a good feeling about themselves after beating Blackpool away with the result 4-1. Teddy Bishop, Luke Chambers and Gwion Edwards (2) found the net in that victory. Before that game, the 2-0 home victory against Gillingham.

The hosts are favourites to win this game, with an estimated chance of about 55-60% of that outcome. Earlier Ipswich matches with similar probabilities have ended with one win, zero draws and two defeats (from three games).

There will be little rest for Ipswich Town after this match as they are travelling to Doncaster Rovers for a League One game in only three days.

It's still early days, but we have some goal stats for the Ipswich Town at home in the league. 4 on target and 0 scored by the opposition; from 2 matches.

Accrington Stanley form and stats

Things could have gone better for Accrington Stanley in their League One away matches, but 3 points from 2 games is all right.

Accrington are travelling after their nice 2-1 home win in the League One against Rochdale (placed 18th). Preceding that match was the 1-1 draw at home vs Blackpool (after extra-time, 4-3 on penalties).

As mentioned above, the odds for this match puts the home team as favourites. Perhaps this eases the pressure on the away team, who are capable of producing an upset here on a good day. Looking at earlier matches with similar odds and Accrington playing away, we found five games. Results were one away win, one draw and three home wins.

The visitors are returning home after this fixture, hosting Fleetwood Town in just three days.

As for goals scored and conceded in the league games away so far, Accrington Stanley has managed 3 goals and let in 3 from 2 matches.

Head 2 Head

As for the last three games between these two teams, there's one Ipswich victory, zero draws and two Accrington Stanley wins. Over/under statistics; one of these games ended with three goals or more, two matches with two goals or less.
