Ipswich Town form and stats

Ipswich Town have played 13 League One games at their own stadium so far this season, resulting in 7-0-6 (wins-draws-losses). Game days at Portman Road Stadium have recently become somewhat of a nightmare for Ipswich Town as they have lost three home games in a row. It hurts.

Ipswich manager P. Lambert and his team return home after a 1-1 draw away versus Crewe Alexandra (placed 9th) in the League One. Preceding that match was the home game against Sunderland that was lost 0-1.

The hometeam coach P. Lambert made a successful contribution in the game against Crewe Alexandra, bringing on Aaron Drinan who scored the equalizer in the 1-1 draw.

There's a new game coming up fairly quickly for Ipswich as they are travelling to their away game against Peterborough United in the League One. That match is three days after this one.

Ipswich are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 14 goals in 13 games. Ipswich Town's goalkeeper has had to pick the ball out of their own net 14 times. For more goal stats, check the Statistics tab above.

Blackpool form and stats

The visitors are W4-D3-L6 on the road this term. That's in the League One.

Blackpool have succeeded in guarding their own goal lately, led by their goalkeeper Christopher Maxwell. It's been 219 minutes since they last conceded in League One.

Blackpool had fun at their own home (Portman Road Stadium) last time out, beating Northampton Town 2-0. Jerry Yates and Marvin Ekpiteta scored. Ahead of that match was the victory versus Wigan Athletic at their stadium, the result 5-0.

A quick return to home after this game, as Blackpool are hosting Burton Albion in the League One only three days away.

Scoring goals is the main ingredient in creating success in football, and not only at home. So far Blackpool have scored 15 goals in 13 league games away. As opposed to that, Blackpool have seen the ball go into their own net 14 times on the road.
