Oxford United vs Ipswich Town prediction and League One tips

In this article, you’ll find out some of the key match details for Oxford United vs Ipswich Town which just might help you make a successful bet.

Connor Chaplin to score

The Tyreece John-Jules-shaped hole at the center of the attack is something that Kieran McKenna has to address sooner rather than later but it doesn’t seem that he’ll have too many difficulties in picking a replacement.

Place Connor Chaplin wherever in the final third, he’ll score for you. At least that’s what we’re seeing from the 25-year-old striker. He slid it past the goalkeepers on multiple occasions this season and with 10 goals and three assists this season, it’s fair to say he’s one hell of a finisher.

Oxford – Under 0.5 goals

How can we possibly expect the U’s to be up to par with the top teams in the league when they can’t even score against them? Just look at the head-to-heads – in the last seven of them, Oxford United have scored only two goals!

Ipswich Town are participating in a gladiator fight for the League One trophy, the visitors aren’t going to drop their guard down right now and this is something that will hurt Oxford United’s chance to score greatly.

Ipswich Town to win

Our third and key Oxford United vs Ipswich Town prediction for this week is the visitors getting a much-needed win over the U’s. There’s a slight head-to-head advantage which we can count on to be a motivation booster for the visiting team’s players as the Tractor Boys won thrice, lost once, and drew six of the last 10 matches versus Oxford United.

Oxford United vs Ipswich Town: match preview & news

The U’s are desperate for points but Ipswich Town rarely give any away for free. It will be a clash and a half and we expect to see the two teams at their lethal best on Saturday.

Oxford United

The manager has to motivate his players somehow if he wants the U’s to partake in the promotion battle this year. The eight victories, eight draws, and nine losses aren’t going to cut it as Oxford United are already trailing by 11 points.

Coach Karl Robinson does have a very poor record against Ipswich with only one win in nine outings. Fortunately, Robinson does not have any injury worries in the squad and he should have the flexibility to make some changes in a bid to maintain momentum. Oxford are looking for back-to-back wins for the first time since the early days of the campaign.

Ipswich Town

The Tractor Boys’ manager opted to make a few changes to his starting XI for the match against Plymouth Argyle a couple of days ago. And despite leading up until the very last minute of the game, Bali Mumba’s 93^rd-minute equalizer was decisive as the two teams shared the spoils at the end.

Dominic Ball is out because of a knee injury. Tyreece John-Jules is ruled out of the match because of a hamstring injury. Panutche Camara is also on the treatment table for manager Kieran McKenna. McKenna is likely to go with the same starting line-up that almost picked up a win against Plymouth in the last match.
