How each side is likely to approach the game. Confirmed line-ups are released about an hour before kick-off.
Home · Promoted
Ipswich Town
Portman Road, Ipswich
Ipswich Town are newly promoted this season. Promoted sides usually sit deeper against established clubs and rely on set pieces and quick breaks, especially at Portman Road.
Away
Chelsea
Stamford Bridge, London
Chelsea are among the title contenders. Expect them to control possession away at Portman Road and push Ipswich back, so their chance count, and the corners market, tends to run high.

Over 2.5 at 55%, under 3.5 at 68%, from expected goals of 1.09 and 1.77.
Draw no bet
Chelsea at 70% on the two-way split; your stake comes back if it ends level.

Betting notes
How to bet on Ipswich vs Chelsea
Four angles to weigh before you place a bet on this fixture.
- 01
The model leans towards goals: over 2.5 at 55% and both teams to score at 55%. Goals markets look sharper than the result here.
- 02
The corners range is 10-13. The favourite tends to win most of them while the underdog sits deep, so team corners can beat the match total.
- 03
Powerplay247 is an exchange: you can back or lay every market on Ipswich vs Chelsea and trade out in-play, for example after an early goal, instead of waiting for full time.
- 04
Wait for the confirmed line-ups, usually out an hour before kick-off. A missing striker or first-choice keeper can move the goals lines more than the 1X2 price.
