Ipswich vs Tottenham: Prediction, Preview & Betting Tips

Tottenham Hotspur’s recent win against Manchester United should give the visitors enough confidence to overcome Ipswich Town, especially with Ange Postecoglu slowly welcoming back players from injury.

The Tractor Boys are still chasing their second home league win of the season and their first league win since the turn of the year, where they beat Chelsea (2-0). Ipswich Town have been poor defensively, with no clean sheets in their previous six matches in all competitions and have lost their last three home games at Portman Road.

Tottenham Hotspur’s recent win over Manchester United means that Ange Postecoglu has now won consecutive league games and three wins in his last five matches. Guglielmo Vicario made his return last time out, which provided a much needed boost for the visitors for this game.

We are going for a 3-2 win for Tottenham Hotspur.

Ipswich Town 2-3 Tottenham Hotspur

Ipswich Town can see this as an opportunity for a potential win, as they take on a Tottenham Hotspur side who are coming off the back of a 1-0 win against Manchester United.

Date: 22/02/2025
Location: Portman Road, Ipswich.
Kick-Off: 3 pm

Ipswich Town have found life difficult in the Premier League, with the Tractor Boys currently in the relegation zone after 25 matches played. Kieran McKenna’s side are still very much competing to stay up, unlike their Championship counterparts from last season in Southampton. Ipswich Town are only two points adrift of the safety zone in the Premier League, and a win against Tottenham Hotspur will move the home side one point clear of Wolves who play Bournemouth respectively.

Tottenham Hotspur’s form and overall fortunes could turn a corner with a win against Ipswich Town in this fixture. Ange Postecoglu has made several mentions of the team’s injury issues, but with key players slowly coming back into the fold, we could see his Spurs side escape the bottom half of the table before too long. Tottenham Hotspur are 12th in the league table and will stay 12th even with a victory against the Tractor Boys.

The game will not be available to watch in the UK.

Conor Chaplin, Sammie Szmodics and Wes Burns will all be unavailable for the visit of Tottenham Hotspur at the weekend.

Christian Romero, Richarlison, Dominic Solanke and Micky van de Ven are likely to be unavailable for Tottenham at the weekend. Ange Postecoglu received a welcome return at the weekend, with Brennan Johnson returning against Manchester United.

The recent meetings between the two teams surprisingly favour the side from East Anglia. The Tractor Boys have won four of the last five meetings between the two teams; however, to provide context, four of the previous five league meetings were over 20 years ago, with Tottenham’s last league win over Ipswich Town in 2000. Goals from Darren Anderton, Stephen Carr, and Les Ferdinand secured victory for Tottenham. This fixture is usually a high-scoring affair, with Over 2.5 goals scored in the last meetings between the two teams.

Ipswich Town come into this game having won only once in their previous five matches in all competitions, and that was an FA Cup tie against Coventry City (1-4). The Tractor Boys did pick up a valuable point in their previous Premier League game against Aston Villa (1-1), in which the side was reduced to ten men following a dismissal for Axel Tuanzebe. Ipswich Town desperately needs a win in the Premier League, with the home side winless in their last seven league games, including conceding six to Manchester City at Portman Road.

The Tractor Boys are still chasing their second home league win of the season and their first league win since the turn of the year, where they beat Chelsea (2-0). Ipswich Town have been poor defensively, with no clean sheets in their previous six matches in all competitions and have lost their last three home games at Portman Road.

Tottenham Hotspur came into this game showing signs of slightly improving form under Ange Postecoglu, with key players slowly returning from injury. Tottenham Hotspur’s recent win against Manchester United (1-0) saw the likes of Vicario and James Maddison return to the fold - with the latter scoring the early winner for Tottenham Hotspur.

Tottenham Hotspur have won their last two consecutive Premier League games, beating the likes of Manchester United (1-0) and Brentford (0-2) in their last away game. Those two wins paint a slightly different picture to their overall form, with the visitors winless in their last seven league patches prior to the Brentford game.
