Venue (City, Stadium) | Selhurst Park, London |
Two sides sitting a place apart in the table meet at Selhurst Park, with Crystal Palace vs Ipswich pitting the home favourites against a visiting side already feeling the squeeze.
Palace arrive in decent nick, sitting 13th and boasting genuine attacking punch. Our Crystal Palace vs Ipswich prediction leans firmly towards the Eagles making home advantage count here.
Ipswich, one place back in 14th, are once again learning the harsh realities of the top flight, having shipped seven goals across defeats to Manchester United and Liverpool.
Palace have won their last five meetings with Ipswich in all competitions, a run that gives the hosts every reason to fancy their chances of extending that dominance.
Crystal Palace vs Ipswich Form
Palace are building momentum, chasing a third straight win in all competitions. They dug out a 3-2 win at Fulham through a Tyrick Mitchell double and a late Ben Chilwell winner, then eased past Middlesbrough 3-0 in the Carabao Cup, Jorgen Strand Larsen heading in twice. There have been over 2.5 goals in eight of their last nine league games.
Ipswich opened up with a 2-1 home win over Sunderland courtesy of Emersonn and Jack Clarke, but reality has since bitten hard against Manchester United and Liverpool. The Tractor Boys have conceded at least two goals in nine of their last 11 league outings, a leaky record that hands Palace real hope in front of goal.

Crystal Palace vs Ipswich Prediction & Best Bets
Our prediction: The Eagles are strong home favourites at 10/11 with AK Bets and the numbers point firmly their way. With Ipswich shipping goals for fun, Palace look well placed to run out 2-0 winners and continue their recent dominance in this fixture.
Best Bets
Back Yeremy Pino to record Over 2.5 shots in the Player Shots market. With Palace projected to dominate possession and chances against a soft Ipswich defence, Pino operates on the left of the front three where the joy should be. The engine room ratings back him to fire in the shots, offering clear value against the implied probability.
Back Jacob Greaves to make Over 1.5 tackles in the Player Tackles market. As Ipswich's main central defender, Greaves is in for a busy afternoon with the visitors set to defend deep in their own half. That volume of work makes him a strong shout to rack up at least two tackles here.
Crystal Palace vs Ipswich Bet Builder
Our four-leg Crystal Palace vs Ipswich bet builder tips back the Eagles to win, Jorgen Larsen to score anytime, both teams to score, and Sasa Lukic to be shown a card.
Palace are strong favourites in the Win Market, backed by their attacking output, with 9+ shots on target in each of their last three Premier League matches.
Jorgen Larsen leads the line as the primary central outlet with Mateta out, and after his cup double he looks the obvious pick for Anytime Goalscorer.
Both Teams To Score gets the nod given Palace's high-volume attacking play, with 27+ shots taken in each of their last three league games, and a leaky Ipswich rearguard.
Sasa Lukic sits in a combative defensive midfield role for Ipswich, throwing himself into physical challenges, which makes him a sensible pick To Be Shown A Card.
At the time of writing, this bet builder pays a best price of 13/1 and is as short as 11/1 elsewhere.

Crystal Palace vs Ipswich Talking Points
Home comfort is the big theme. Palace are still chasing their first Premier League home win of the campaign after that 4-1 hiding by Manchester City, and with a Europa League opener against Lech Poznan looming, they will want three points banked before Europe arrives. The club have flagged Ipswich as one of the most intense sides in the league and made clear that defensive structure will come before empty possession, a sensible tone given Palace have conceded at least two goals in each of their last nine league games. Even so, the numbers point one way here: Palace's front line against an Ipswich defence leaking two or more in nine of their last 11 outings looks a mismatch, and the hosts should have too much.
