• Brentford have won their last three matches.

Ipswich Town may be playing out the final games of their Premier League campaign with relegation confirmed, but their visitors, Brentford, still have something to chase. The Bees come into this clash with an opportunity to secure a record-high 8th-placed finish in the Premier League, making this a meaningful encounter for Thomas Frank’s men.

The bookies like the away side, with Brentford at 1.60 for the win. Ipswich are clear outsiders at 5.00, while the draw sits at 4.00. Those looking for a bit of insurance might consider Ipswich on the double chance market at 2.25. 

Goals are also expected at Portman Road, with over 2.5 match goals priced short at 1.50. Under 2.5 goals is generously available at 2.40, a reflection of Ipswich’s defensive issues and Brentford’s attacking firepower.

⭐ Ipswich v Brentford Predictions and Best Bets

With Brentford on a hot run and Ipswich seemingly going through the motions, the away win at 1.60 looks like good value. Brentford come into this clash on a wave of momentum, having won three consecutive matches against Brighton, Nottingham Forest, and Man United. They’ve suffered just one defeat in their last seven games, a run that includes tricky fixtures against Arsenal, Chelsea, Newcastle, and Bournemouth. 

Ipswich are winless in five, suffering defeats to Arsenal, Wolves, and Newcastle during this stretch, in fact, they’ve lost seven of their last 10. Ipswich have still managed to score in four of these seven defeats, suggesting they may be able to get on the scoresheet even in a losing effort. That adds appeal to the Brentford to win and both teams to score market at a healthy 2.80. 

The over 2.5 goals line at 1.50 also looks like a solid inclusion for accumulators given it’s landed in Ipswich Town’s last seven, and four of Brentford’s games during this period.

🔵 Ipswich Already Relegated

It’s been a tough return to the top flight for Ipswich, and their relegation alongside fellow promoted clubs Southampton and Leicester has already been confirmed. 

The Tractor Boys have struggled across the board, especially in 2025. They’ve gone without a league clean sheet this calendar year and are now without a win in their last five. They’ve earned just 22 points all season, with only seven of those coming at home.

Defensively, they’ve shipped 40 goals at home and managed just 13 in response. Their away form has been slightly better, with three wins and six draws, although they’ve scored only nine goals on the road. 

The squad remains heavily impacted by absentees as well, with key players like Leif Davis, Wes Burns, Nathan Broadhead, Jaden Philogene, Conor Townsend, and Chiedozie Ogbene all expected to remain sidelined.

🔴 Brentford Pushing for Best-Ever Premier League Finish

Brentford have quietly put together a fantastic campaign under Thomas Frank and are on the verge of achieving their best-ever Premier League finish. With 52 points already on the board, the Bees are within touching distance of 8th and could leapfrog Bournemouth with a win here. 

Their season has been built on strong home form, 31 points at the Gtech Community Stadium, but their away results have been solid too, collecting 21 points on the road. 

Brentford’s attack has been particularly impressive, with 62 goals scored, averaging 1.77 per match. Star forwards Bryan Mbeumo and Yoane Wissa have each bagged 18 goals in the league, forming one of the league’s most underrated duos.

Defensively, they concede around 1.51 goals per game, which contributes to the high-scoring nature of many of their matches.

📊 Ipswich v Brentford Head-to-Head Key Stats

The reverse fixture between these sides produced one of the most entertaining matches of the season. Brentford emerged 4-3 winners in a dramatic encounter that saw Bryan Mbeumo net a 96th-minute winner. 

Ipswich had raced to a 2-0 lead inside 30 minutes through Sammie Szmodics and George Hirst, but Brentford stormed back with a brace from Wissa just before half time. Mbeumo then converted a penalty before Liam Delap thought he’d salvaged a point for Ipswich with an 86th-minute equaliser. But Mbeumo’s stoppage-time strike sealed the win.

The xG from that game heavily favoured Brentford at 3.94 to Ipswich’s 1.36. With 14 total shots on target, the match was wide open from start to finish. Given how both sides have been involved in high-scoring contests of late, a repeat of this looks likely here.
