FULHAM v IPSWICH TOWN
Tuesday 15th December 2015 – Kickoff: 1945hrs
Football – England – Championship Betting Tips
Fulham were held to an entertaining 2-2 draw at home by Brentford on Saturday afternoon but Stuart Gray’s side have now gone six matches without a win in the Championship as they’ve lost three and drawn three.
This recent spate of defeats and draws have resulted in Fulham dropping down the league table to 17th place and another defeat tonight could have the Cottagers starting to look nervously over their shoulders at the teams below them.
Fulham’s home record reads an ordinary 3-4-3 18/18 with just one home win from their last six at Craven Cottage which was a 4-2 win over Reading towards the end of October. Draws with Leeds United, Preston North End and Brentford have not been enough to lift Fulham into the top half of the Championship.
Visitors Ipswich Town bounced back from their recent defeat at home to Middlesbrough with a 1-0 win away at MK Dons which has lifted the Tractor Boys into sixth place and a play-off position as we head into the Christmas period.
Ipswich will now not only be keen to cement their current play-off position, but also to make up ground on the rest of the pack as they are four points adrift of Burnley ahead of tonight’s set of fixtures.
Ipswich’s away record stands at a reasonable 5-2-3 16/16 and they’ve also won their last there away matches on the trot with wins at Rotherham United, Charlton Athletic and of course MK Dons, while forwards Pitman, Sears and Murphy could cause a few problems here tonight.
I’ll back Ipswich with the draw no bet option here as they look the more likely to take the points.
Pick: Ipswich Town AH0 @ 1.88 Bet Victor
