  • 39' Ipswich Town FC seems to be on a short break. The game is mainly concentrated in the center. It’s high time they got back to action. Otherwise, it looks like a goalless game.
  • 44' has dominated the recent head-to-head record, winning 0 of the last 0 meetings.

  • 62' The referee has had an easy afternoon — neither side has been overly physical in the tackle.
  • 65' It is a substitution in Ipswich Town FC team. Brett McGavin is replaced by Keanen Bennetts on 65 minute.
