Match preview: Leicester vs Ipswich

Leicester and Ipswich face off at King Power Stadium in a match from the 37th round of the Premier League. The last time these teams met in the league, on 02-11-2024, the match ended in a 1-1 draw. The recent head-to-head record between these teams is balanced, with three draws in their last three encounters. The home advantage may play a crucial role in this match, as both teams show distinct differences in their home and away performances.

Team analysis: Leicester

Leicester is currently sitting in 19th position with 21 points, following 5 wins, 7 draws, and 24 losses. They recently drew against Nottingham Forest (2-2) following a home victory against Southampton (2-0). The team has struggled away, with a record of 1 win, 3 draws, and 11 losses in their last 30 matches on the road, while they perform better at home, recording 3 wins, 1 draw, and 11 losses at King Power Stadium. In their last 10 home games, Leicester has only managed 1 victory and 9 losses, accumulating just 3 points out of a possible 30. Notably, 0-1 has been the most common score at half-time in their home matches. Their defensive record has also been shaky, conceding goals in 9 of their last 10 matches and failing to score in 7 of those. With a tendency for goals, 16 of their last 18 league matches have featured over 1.5 goals. Leicester rarely opens the scoring; they’ve only done so in 7 of their last 36 Premier League games.

Leicester City enters this match after a 2-2 draw against Nottingham Forest, with goals from Conor Coady and Facundo Buonanotte. The side typically employs a 4-3-3 formation focused on fast transitions, particularly down the flanks, featuring players such as Bilal El Khannouss, Kasey McAteer, and Jamie Vardy in attack. Manager Ruud Van Nistelrooy will be without several players due to injuries, including Ricardo Pereira, Stephy Mavididi, Bobby de Reda-Reid, Mads Hermansen, Issahaku Fatawu, and Harry Souttar.

Team analysis: Ipswich

Ipswich currently occupies 18th place in the league with 22 points, registering 4 wins, 10 draws, and 22 losses. Their most recent match ended in a 0-1 defeat at home against Brentford. Ironically, Ipswich has performed better away from home recently, with 4 wins, 5 draws, and 6 losses in their last 30 away games, scoring 21 goals and conceding 25. In contrast, their home form has been poor, with just 2 wins, 2 draws, and 11 losses, and an alarming 13 goals scored against 34 conceded. In their last 10 games, they have accumulated just 7 points, with 1 victory, 4 draws, and 5 losses while typically conceding at least one goal in their past 10 league matches. Ipswich has never managed to overturn a deficit when they concede the first goal in any of their last 20 matches.

Ipswich Town arrives at this encounter deflated after a 0-1 defeat against Brentford. For this clash against Leicester City, the visiting manager is expected to implement a cautious 4-3-3 formation, focusing on defensive solidity and quick counter-attacks, with Liam Delap, Julio Enciso, and Omari Hutchinson tasked with creating offensive threats. However, a number of players, including Arijanet Muric, Conor Townsend, Sammie Szmodics, Nathan Broadhead, Chiedozie Ogbene, Jaden Philoge, and Wes Burns, will be unavailable due to injuries.
