Our prediction for the match Aston Villa vs Ipswich Town
“The Villans” were constantly progressing in the first years under the leadership of Emery. Having taken over the club during the last but one season, the mentor managed to raise the club to 7th place, which means that it provided a ticket to the Conference League. There, playing from the summer, from the qualification, the representative of Birmingham rose to the Premier League, eventually pushing Tottenham out of the quartet of leaders. At the same time, “the Tractor Boys” continued to progress quickly. Having finally returned to the Championship in 2023, the team managed to stay at the 2nd position!
A newcomer, despite the reinforcements both in the summer and in January, is very weak and not competitive even at the higher level. The team rarely wins and loses more than half of the matches. For instance, all 4 previous struggles, including a home battle against Southampton, were lost. As for the cup confrontation, where the club struggled with Coventry, it staged a 4-1 rout. “The Villans” debuted in the Champions League, and started there well, with 3 victories. Then the results “dropped”, but, having won the games against RB Leipzig and Celtic, the English club secured a direct ticket to the play-offs. At the same time, there are enough problems at the inner arena: the team quickly flew out in the League Cup, and lost a lot in the Premier League. There, it has failed to win 3 times in a row. It is not surprising that, having sold Duran to Saudi Arabia at a good price, the team signed Malen, Andres Garcia, and also rented Rashford, Asensio and Disasi. The updated squad achieved a minimal victory in the cup battle against Tottenham – 2-1.
The Birmingham club’s attack scores only 1.42 goals per match. And Emi Martinez consistently concedes over one and a half goals per meeting. The outsider, despite Delap’s good shape, cannot reach the goal scored per match (currently, this indicator is 0.92), but the team consistently concedes 2 goals in response.
