Brentford vs Ipswich Town Prediction, lineups, betting tips & odds
Both clubs will be looking to return to winning ways
Brentford will return to their fortress after dropping three points from a winning position against Manchester United at Old Trafford. The Bees will be hoping to bounce back to winning ways and what better than a debut Premier League clash against a struggling Ipswich Town. They are placed 13th on the table and have won just one of their last five Premier League games.
Ipswich Town on the other hand have failed to make an impact on their return to the English top flight after 22 years of exile. The Blues have failed to win a single game so far this season and are in touching distance with the relegation zone. With four defeats and draws each, Ipswich Town are placed 17th in the standings.

Players to watch
Christian Nørgaard (Brentford)
The Bees’ skipper has been one of the most consistent and impactful players for his side. Nørgaard mostly operates as a holding midfielder and provides support in both attack and defense. His work rate, game-reading abilities and leadership attributes are second to none. He is a towering presence in the middle of the park and is known for his positioning and movements off the ball.
Liam Delap (Ipswich Town)
Liam Delap is the only silver lining for Ipswich Town this season. The striker has continued to find the back of the net despite all the chaos and is the top scorer for his side with four goals to his name. Delap is a poacher inside the box and never gets his positioning wrong. He has a bright future ahead of him and is expected to be Ipswich Town’s messiah and help them get back on track.
