Ipswich v Bournemouth

Ipswich vs Bournemouth Preview

Ipswich Town stumbled to a second defeat on the trot in midweek in the Premier League when the Tractor Boys suffered a 1-0 loss at home to Crystal Palace which has left the Suffolk outfit sitting in the bottom three of the English top flight table and three points adrift of safety.

By contrast, Bournemouth not only recorded a second win on the trot in the Premier League during the week with a 1-0 home win against Tottenham but the south coast club have also lifted themselves up into the top half of the Premier League table as well with that result.

Ipswich Town had previously suffered a 1-0 defeat away from home at the City Ground against Nottingham Forest and having still only managed to pick up just the single win so far in what has been a tough Premier League season, the Tractor Boys will now need to roll their sleeves up as they prepare for a busy December fixture schedule.

Kieran McKenna's side registered a 2-1 win away from home at Tottenham but that has been Ipswich Town's only highlight within their opening 14 games of this term whilst also being involved in six draws but also seven defeats as well.

Four draws but three defeats make up Ipswich Town's results on home soil at Portman Road so far this season.

Bournemouth will have been elated with their 1-0 home win against Tottenham during the week which came hot on the heels of a previous 4-2 win away from home against Wolves at Molineux, so the south coast club will now be seeking a third league win on the trot this Sunday afternoon.

The last time Bournemouth collected three wins on the trot in the Premier League was back in March of last season when The Cherries racked up wins against Luton Town, Everton and Crystal Palace.

Despite a slow start to this season which produced just one win but also included defeats at the hands of Chelsea and Liverpool, Bournemouth have slipped to just a further three losses in their subsequent nine games overall in the English top flight and picking up five wins in the process.

Impressive victories gained over Southampton, Arsenal, Manchester City, Wolves and Tottenham will have served as a massive morale boost for the south coast club and The Cherries will therefore be brimming with confidence as they prepare for this upcoming visit to Portman Road on Sunday afternoon.

Ipswich Town v Bournemouth Verdict

Ipswich Town have conceded in each of their last 10 league matches while Bournemouth have scored in their last seven games in the Premier League, and having won their last two games on the trot, Bournemouth look the more likely to take the spoils in this one.
