Ipswich Town form and stats

2 wins, 1 draw and 3 losses. That’s the product of Ipswich Town, who have the most scored goals (29) in League One, playing as the away team in the League One this season.

Ipswich Town won their last game, 2-1 versus Fleetwood Town played at home. Bersant Celina came off the bench to score the winning goal in the match against Fleetwood Town last time out, making the manager P. Cook feel like a tactical genius. Late drama in the previous game, when Bersant Celina scored the winning goal three minutes into stoppage time to defeat Fleetwood Town. Midfield player Sam Morsy was the top player of the team with a match rating of 7.84/10. Morsy served one assist, hit three key passes, dribled past the opponent 3 of 3 times and had 77 successful passes (of 80 total).

It's worth mentioning that 7 of these goals has been scored in their last three away matches. As opposed to that, Ipswich have seen the ball go into their own net 8 times on the road.
