A strong away win for Ipswich against Portsmouth the last match, as Sone Aluko, Wes Burns, Macauley Bonne and Conor Chaplin were on target.

Midfielder Conor Chaplin was the best player on the team with a rating of 8.3 (out of ten) in that game. Chaplin scored one goal, served one assist and hit one key pass.

Before that, Ipswich played out a draw 2-2 when visiting Cambridge United.

The betting market estimate that the home team has about 55-60% chance of winning this match. There could be betting value if you think differently, so to help you here are the stats from Ipswich's earlier matches at home being 55%-60% favourite: Played four games, won one match, drawn zero and lost three.

Fleetwood Town form and stats

The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Fleetwood Town so far with only 6 points returning home. The records show 1-3-2 (win-draw-lose). Visiting Fleetwood Town has seen their last two away games both end with a tied score and one point each.

The manager S. Grayson was unhappy after their last game, a League One match played at their home ground Highbury Stadium. Fleetwood suffered a 0-1 loss to Burton Albion (placed 7th). Goalkeeper Alex Cairns got the top player rating of the team with 7.82/10. Cairns stopped the opponent with five saves.

That result followed a home victory 3-0 versus Crewe Alexandra.

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 Fleetwood playing away, we found one game. Results were one away win, zero draws and zero home wins.

Fleetwood has displayed an ability to score goals in away matches in the league this season, 11 goals from 6 games. As for defending, Fleetwood rarely keep clean sheets as they have conceded 11 goals from these away matches.
