Ipswich v West Ham Betting Preview & Quick Tips

Jed Langham
I’ve always been obsessed with sports. Over time, this passion naturally evolved into a fascination with stats and sports betting, especially football. The Premier League is my bread and butter, having grown up watching it, but my interest spans leagues across the globe - if there's a game on, I'll find a punting angle for it.
Ipswich v West Ham
Kick Off: Sunday 25th May at 16:00
Competition: Premier League
Under 4.5 cards has landed in last 10 meetings.
Ipswich have the 2nd-worst defensive record in the league.
Ipswich have one just once in 2025.
Ipswich will play their final home Premier League match, for at least the next year, this Sunday, as they host West Ham. Despite a difficult season that has already confirmed their relegation, Ipswich head into this fixture against a poor West Ham side as only narrow underdogs, a rare position for them in the top-flight this year. While the outcome won’t change their fate, it’s a valuable opportunity for them to end the campaign on a positive note in front of their home supporters.
⭐ Ipswich v West Ham Predictions and Best Bets
Both sides have shown a tendency to share the points this season, each registering 10 draws in the league. While their defensive records are among the worst in the division, their attacking output has been similarly underwhelming, making it unlikely either team will fully capitalise on the other's vulnerabilities. The odds reflect this balance, with West Ham just over evens and Ipswich a shade under 2/1. A draw feels like a realistic outcome.
While this match doesn't scream goal-fest, Jarrod Bowen stands out as a strong anytime scorer pick. West Ham’s top scorer with 12 goals this season, Bowen, remains their most consistent attacking threat. He’ll be facing the league’s 2nd-worst defence, which has conceded an average of 2.14 goals per game - a stat that could easily tilt in his favour.
🔵 Ipswich’s Premier League Return Ends in Disappointment
It’s been a tough return to the top-flight for Ipswich, with just one win in 2025 and four defeats in their last five games. Their 22-point tally underlines how out of their depth they’ve been at Premier League level this season. Struggles at home have been particularly glaring - just one win at Portman Road and a goal difference of -28 on their own turf. Offensively, they’ve averaged less than a goal per game, while conceding 2.14. All told, it’s been a season to forget.
🟣Hammers Fall Flat in a Season of Missed Opportunities
West Ham have endured a frustrating and underwhelming campaign, with only one win in their last 10 matches and 17 league losses overall, making it one of their poorest seasons in recent memory. Despite the gloom, they’ve occasionally reminded fans of their potential, claiming surprise wins over the likes of Arsenal and Newcastle. However, their defensive frailties have been a persistent issue, preventing any real consistency or momentum.
📊 Ipswich v West Ham Head-to-Head Key Stats

The Hammers dominated the match, registering 14 shots on target compared to Ipswich’s three. Both teams have found the net in five of their last six meetings, indicating a consistent attacking threat from either side. Discipline has rarely been an issue, with under 4.5 cards shown in each of the last 10 encounters.
