Ipswich vs Brentford Prediction, Odds & Statistics

Our Poisson-based model projects 1.17 expected goals for Ipswich and 1.80 for Brentford, a combined total of 2.97.

Prediction conclusion

The model's leading selection is Brentford win, at 52.0%. Its single most likely scoreline is 1–1.

It puts both teams scoring at 58% and over 2.5 goals at 57%.

A 52% selection is expected to miss in the remaining share of matches, and football regularly produces red cards, injuries and tactical changes the data cannot see. Treat this as a probability, not a forecast of the result.
