Football – England – Championship Betting Tips
Nottingham Forest take on Ipswich Town at the City Ground as the betting tips continue in the Championship this Saturday afternoon.
Nottingham Forest were involved in an extraordinary 10-goal thriller with Aston Villa during the week as they drew 5-5 at Villa Park, and this result extended Nottingham Forest’s unbeaten run in the Championship to six matches.
Recent wins over Bolton Wanderers, Sheffield United and Hull City have helped Aitor Karanka’s side into 6th place and a position in the play-off pack ahead of this clash with struggling Ipswich Town. With a home record of 4-4-1 11/8 and forwards Grabban (12 goals) and Lolley (6 goals) scoring for fun, the hosts will be confident of taking the spoils here.
Ipswich Town twice threw away leads in their midweek 3-2 defeat to Bristol City at Portman Road as Paul Lambert’s side promised much but ultimately delivered yet another defeat which became their fifth in seven matches.
Ipswich remain rock bottom of the Championship with just 11 points to date which includes just the one win so far in this campaign, which was an unexpected 3-2 win away at Swansea City. Aside from that though, there’s been very little for the Ipswich fans to cheer about this term.
The Tractor Boys have an away record of 1-2-6 8/18 and along with Millwall, have conceded the most away goals in the division so far this season. This statistic doesn’t bode well for the visitors who prepare to keep a free-scoring Nottingham Forest and Lewis Grabban quiet at the City Ground.
In addition, Ipswich have conceded 2 goals or more in 8 of their 9 away matches to date.
The betting tips therefore advise a home win here for Nottingham Forest.
