Ipswich – Reading. Mark O’Haire’s prediction
Reading have tended to have the upper hand in recent skirmishes with Ipswich (W8-D0-L1) but their away days blues since September, picking up a paltry two points from a possible 27 on their travels, (W0-D2-L7) is off-putting this midweek.
Nevertheless, I do believe the Berkshire boys can grab a goal. The Royals have fired in a league-high 5.14 shots-on-target in away fixtures this term and, although they’ve fired blanks in four of their last seven away days, Ipswich have recorded just two shutouts in 10 with each of their last seven visitors to Portman Road all managing to get on the scoresheet.
Since the start of last season, the Both Teams To Score bet has landed in 20/37 (54%) of Ipswich’s home matches and 23/37 (62%) of Reading’s road trips. This term it’s proven profitable in 8/14 (57%) Portman Road dates and 9/14 (64%) of the visitors games as guests.
With around a 60% success rate across both samples, odds of 1.95 on a repeat look too good to turn down.
