Ipswich Town duel AFC Wimbledon for glory and triumph.

Insights:
  • Ipswich Town have the most conceded goals in the second half (6) in League One

It’s a hectic schedule for the away team, as they were in action only four days ago in the Carabao Cup. That game, against Northampton Town, was also an away game. It's a tiring schedule for AFC Wimbledon.

Ipswich Town form and stats

Ipswich Town are yet to win a home game, having collected 2 points from their first two League One games here at Portman Road Stadium. Their last two home games have resulted in two points, meaning they were both draws.

The home supporters saw a 2-2 draw versus Milton Keynes Dons in the League One last time out and are looking for a win here. The attacker Macauley Bonne was "man of the match" for Ipswich with a rating of 8.3/10. Bonne scored two goals and hit two key passes. Ipswich's goalie Václav Hladký played a big part in securing a draw after 90 minutes against Milton Keynes Dons with a stunning six saves.

Prior to that was the away defeat visiting Cheltenham Town (1-2).

The hosts are modest favourites in this match, with the bookmakers estimating the chance of a home win at about 50% +- five percent. It's interesting to look at how Ipswich have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found 14 games) they have won eight times, drawn five and lost one.

Ipswich Town has scored 4 goals so far and conceded 4 goals from 2 home games. These are numbers from the league only.

AFC Wimbledon form and stats

AFC Wimbledon are doing rather OK so far in their away games in the League One, having played 2 games and collected 3 points (1 win, 0 draws and 1 loss).

It's the second away game in a row for Wimbledon, but there's smiles all around after the 1-0 victory versus Northampton Town in the Carabao Cup last time out. Anthony Hartigan got a match rating of 7.85 in that game, top player of the team. Hartigan scored one goal, hit one key pass, dribled passed the opponent 1 of 1 times and had 41 successful passes (of 50 total). Late drama in the previous game, when Anthony Hartigan scored the winning goal four minutes into stoppage time to defeat Northampton Town.

It was a League One defeat before that one as the away game against Sunderland wasn't a success with a 0-1 loss.

Wimbledon are the outsiders in this one, but not by much. Their performance in similar games (being the away team and moderate outsiders) is two wins, five draws and three defeats. From a total of ten matches.

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

Head 2 Head

Stats for the prior four meetings between these two crews are: one win for Ipswich, two draws and one win for AFC Wimbledon. Over 2,5 goals: two times; under 2,5 goals: two games.
