Ipswich Town form and stats

18 points is a decent return from 9 League One games here at Portman Road Stadium for Ipswich Town. The data says 6 wins, 0 draws and 3 losses. Three consecutive losses here at Portman Road Stadium is hard to swallow for the home team. Both players, staff and the home crowd are desperate to get something from this match.

The Ipswich fans got no joy from their last match, a League One game also here at Portman Road Stadium: A 0-2 defeat against Portsmouth (placed 3rd). A strong away win before that one, visiting Plymouth Argyle and winning 2-1.

The Ipswich fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 10 in 9 matches. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 0 of these goals has been scored in their last three home matches. From these home matches, Ipswich have conceded only 8 goals. It's worth mentioning that 7 of these goals has been conceded in their last 3 home matches.
