Ipswich Town
- Ipswich are on a winning streak in all competitions (W5).
- The Tractor Boys are unbeaten at home in the Premier League 2026/2027 (W1).
- Ipswich Town enter Friday's Premier League matchup in 8th place with 3 points from 1 match.
- Ipswich have conceded just 1 goal in 1 match at Portman Road, so the hosts have certainly been a hard nut to crack on home soil, so far at least.
Liverpool
- Liverpool are inconsistent (W2, D1, L2).
- The Reds are also unbeaten on their travels (D1).
- Liverpool have looked a little sluggish and fell 2-3 at home to AS Monaco in midweek.
- The Reds have also kept things relatively tight on the road, with 1 draw and 0 defeats from 1 away match, so the defensive side of the game could be a chess match on Friday.
Head-to-Head
Liverpool have won the last two meetings, however, the last time they met in the Premier League 2024/2025, they won 4-1 at Anfield .
Betting Insights
- Liverpool should have enough quality to edge this one, however, Ipswich are on a hot streak and will make this tough for the visitors on their home turf.
- The draw comes in at 4.1, which makes no sense at all, Liverpool are the clear favorites at 1.57, while the Tractor Boys are 5.2.
- Liverpool to win and over 2.5 goals at 1.57 appeals, as they should have the edge in terms of possession and will look to turn the screw when they are on the front foot, which should lead to a few breakaways.
- Both teams to score at 1.6 also makes sense, as neither side have been particularly vulnerable at the back and both have enough about them to score on Friday.
Prediction
The way this game is setting up, with Liverpool looking to break through the Tractor Boys' shape with their pace and tempo, against a solid, yet organised Ipswich side, looks likely to be an interesting and lively match .
