Ipswich will surely have a turbulent season until the end. They played solid so far, as they collected 16 points in the first 20 matches. Kieran McKenna's team are just behind Wolves, who occupy the first position on the table in safety. Ipswich are currently probably in the best moment of the season as it has not been defeated in the last three games in all competitions. Last weekend, they won 3-0 at home in the FA Cup against Bristol Rovers. The League One opponent wasn't even near the adequate level, so Ipswich secured an easy win.
Brighton are, again, probably in a natural, mid-table position. The last few months were tough for Fabian Hurzeler's team as they were eight games without a win (mostly were draws). Last weekend, they finally broke the negative run with a 4-0 win on the road in the cup against Norwich. The guests dominated throughout the game and picked up a big victory without any problems.
Ipswich vs Brighton pick: Over 2.5 goals
Interestingly, both teams scored seven goals in their last three matches. In the first part of the season, Ipswich and Brighton played 0-0 in the only h2h game. We should expect a different game this time, as both sides are playing well offensively.
