Stoke City, Recent FormAn important point secured against Watford will have left Stoke City quite happy with their 1-1 draw. During that encounter they had 54% possession and had 14 attempts on goal with 4 on target, while their opponents hit 6 of their 13 shots on goal.
Manager Steven Schumacher will be reasonably pleased with his team's attacking displays in recent matches, having managed to score 6 goals in their last 6 games, but he will have work to do defensively after they conceded 5 goals in those games and dropped some valuable points along the way. They have been unable to score at home in 4 of their last 6 games, and they have also failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 games overall.
They've drawn their last 2 league games at Bet365 Stadium, but their search for a home win in the league extends even further having gone 5 consecutive games without grabbing all 3 points.
Ipswich Town, Recent FormIpswich Town manager Kieran McKenna will be looking for a better result in this game following a disappointing 0-0 draw in his team's last league outing against Queens Park Rangers. Their share of possession in that meeting was 54%, while racking up 7 shots along the way, 5 of which were on target. Queens Park Rangers had 10 shots on goal with 2 on target.
They may consider themselves adept at breaking through their opponent's defences, having scored 7 goals in their last 6 outings, but they have had their own defensive frailties to worry about, having conceded 8 and seen valuable points lost. They've failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 away games; however, overall they've scored in 22 of their 25 games this season.
Ipswich will take some comfort from having only lost 1 of their last 6 games, but having managed just 2 wins shows there's room for improvement.
Marcus Harness will be hoping to create problems for Stoke City in this one, having scored 2 goals in his last 6 outings on the road for Ipswich Town.
Not many saw the outcome of the last meeting between these sides as a surprise, with Ipswich Town running out winners in a match that ended 2-0.
