BEST ODDS
Our pick: Bookmakers offer average 1.67 (implied 59.9%) for Both Teams to Score. Our experts calculate a 62.4% probability (an expert ratio of 1.60). We chose this bet because our experts rate it more likely than the bookmaker price implies (62.4% vs 59.9%), driven by both attacks scoring freely while both defences look leaky. That edge makes it our most confident selection for this match.

Match Preview

The model favours Ipswich to win this match against Crystal Palace, projecting a scoreline of 2-1. Ipswich currently sits in 9th position in the Premier League after a strong start to the season, winning their only match played so far. Their early-season form reflects a solid attack, having scored two goals while conceding just one, which gives them a positive goal difference of one. This early success is promising as they look to build momentum. In contrast, Crystal Palace finds itself at the bottom of the standings in 19th place, having lost both of their opening matches. They have struggled defensively, conceding six goals while only managing to score once, resulting in a goal difference of minus five. Their recent form, with two wins and three losses in their last five matches, indicates ongoing difficulties that they will need to address quickly. The model gives Ipswich a win probability of 65%, while Crystal Palace has a mere 15% chance to secure a victory. One caveat for this prediction is the potential for Crystal Palace to turn their form around at home, where they may perform better than their current standings suggest. For a deeper understanding of how this prediction was reached, please refer to the "How We Reached This Prediction" section, where our in-house model analyzes expected goals and actual results throughout the season.

The Daily Punt Analysis Team

Data-driven football predictions and betting tips

This forecast was built by the The Daily Punt Analysis Team using our in-house statistical model. We feed the model two layers of data for every fixture: each team's recent expected goals (xG and xGA) and their actual goals scored and conceded, split by home and away venue. The numbers run through a Poisson distribution that produces a probability for every possible scoreline, which we then convert into fair odds for the 1X2, correct score, BTTS, and over/under markets.

Before publishing, we cross-check our fair odds against the prices the major bookmakers are offering. Where a bookmaker is paying out more than our model says is mathematically fair, we flag that market as a value bet on this page.
