Brentford vs Ipswich Town

, KO: 15:00 Oct 26, 2024, Gtech Community Stadium
Ipswich Town

Brentford will look to get back to winning ways in the Premier League when they take on Ipswich Town at the Gtech Stadium on Saturday afternoon.

Thomas Frank’s team have made a mixed start to the season, posting three wins, one draw and four defeats to date.

Last time out in the top-flight, the Bees were narrowly beaten 2-1 by Manchester United at Old Trafford.

Brentford have done the majority of their best work at their capital base this season, so they will seek some more home comfort when Ipswich come to town.

After suffering a heavy 4-1 defeat away at West Ham before the international break, the Tractor Boys tumbled to a 2-0 loss when entertaining Everton last weekend, on an afternoon where both of my Portman Road plays proved profitable.

That setback has left Kieran McKenna’s men just one place and one point above the relegation zone ahead of their weekend trip to the capital. 

How the bookies view it: Bees to get their buzz back

Brentford, who have won three of their four Premier League home games this season, are odds-on 4/6 favourites with Betano.

Ipswich are 18/5 (Betano) underdogs to secure their first Premier League win of the season at the ninth attempt, while a share of the Gtech Stadium spoils is trading at 29/20 with the same firm.

Head to head: Tractor Boys tend to toil

Ipswich have triumphed in just one of their last nine meetings with Brentford. Saturday’s clash will see the pair come up against each other for the first time ever in the Premier League.

Players to watch: Mbeumo to make his mark?

Bryan Mbeumo has scored six goals across his opening eight Premier League appearances this season. The Bees forward has been priced up at 4/5 on PaddyPower for a goal or an assist this weekend and that price holds plenty of appeal.

Liam Delap, who has netted three goals over his last three top-flight outings for Ipswich, is 33/10 (UniBet) to strike in West London this weekend.

Predicted line-ups

Yoane Wissa made a welcome return from injury when coming off the bench for Brentford at Old Trafford last weekend. Thus, Bees boss Frank may bring the forward back into his starting XI on Saturday.

Injury issues are starting to impact on Ipswich who have seen both Ben Johnson and Jacob Greaves added to their ever-growing absentee list.

Brentford: Flekken; Van den Berg, Collins, Pinnock; Ajer, Damsgaard, Norgaard, Janelt, Lewis-Potter; Wissa, Mbeumo

Ipswich: Muric; O’Shea, Woolfenden, Burgess, Davis; Morsy, Phillips; Burns, Hutchinson, Clarke; Delap.

Anything else catch the eye?

Elsewhere, Brentford’s Sepp van den Berg looks overpriced to commit a minimum of one foul during this contest at even-money on PaddyPower.

The Dutch defender has got on the wrong side of the match official five times across his last four Premier League appearances. 

The 22-year-old should be kept busy on Saturday when he comes up against the aforementioned Delap, who has drawn a combined total of 13 fouls in his eight top-flight outings this term to date.

This match between Brentford and Ipswich Town will be played on Oct 26, 2024 and kick off at 15:00. Check below for our tipsters best Brentford vs Ipswich Town prediction. You may also visit our dedicated betting previews section for the most up to date previews.
