Ipswich to Stay Within Reach of Bournemouth
Bournemouth head into this Premier League match at Portman Road after winning their last five games. Ipswich sit fourteenth but have shown they can match stronger sides at home, where they average fewer goals conceded than on the road. The Cherries keep clean sheets in three of nine matches so far, though their away record shows more goals let in. Head to head encounters feature four draws in the last six, with tight scores common. Both teams have scored in seven of Ipswich's nine league games this term. Bournemouth's attack has clicked with 2.6 goals per game, but the home side's tendency for low-scoring affairs at the back could limit the damage. The game may see Ipswich stay within one goal of their opponents throughout.
