Football Bet of the Day: Portman Road the Place For Goals on Boxing Day

Tuesday’s Football Bet of the Day sees me focus on the top of the table clash in the Championship, and I’m anticipating an entertaining encounter.

⚽️ Ipswich Town vs Leicester City

🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 Championship

⏰ Tuesday 26th December, 19:45

The top two in the Championship table meet at Portman Road tomorrow evening as Ipswich play host to Leicester in what promises to be an entertaining encounter.

Kieran McKenna’s hosts are the joint-highest scorers in the English Championship, banging in 47 goals across their opening 23 matches, with a remarkable 32 (68%) of them coming in front of their supporters. The Tractor Boys have scored at least twice in all 11 of their Championship matches on home soil – even scoring three or more in eight (73%) of them – and will look to continue their fine goal-scoring record at home against a Leicester backline that has registered a solitary clean sheet across their previous 10 on their travels this term in the Championship.

Enzo Maresca’s visitors are the joint-highest scorers in the Championship, banging in 47 goals across their opening 23 matches, with 24 (51%) of them coming on the road. The Foxes have found the back of the net in 20/23 (87%) of their league outings this term – striking on multiple occasions in 16 (70%) of them – and they will be confident of breaching an Ipswich defence that has registered a solitary clean sheet across their last 10 league contests at Portman Road, shipping multiple goals in seven (70%) of them.

Bet of the Day

Ipswich’s opening 11 Championship fixtures on home soil this campaign are averaging a whopping 4.64 goals per game, with Both Teams to Score & Over 2.5 Goals landing in nine of their previous 10 – and given the same has landed in seven of Leicester’s previous 10 road trips – I’m happy to have a punt on there to be three or more goals, with both of these free-scoring sides to get on the scoresheet.
