Bournemouth vs Ipswich Preview and Team News
Bournemouth Team News
Andoni Iraola’s dreams of leading Bournemouth to Wembley went up in smoke on Sunday, as Bournemouth were beaten 2-1 by Manchester City. Bournemouth have now gone five without a win across all competitions, and have suffered defeats in four fixtures across that period.
Despite their excellent attacking talent this season, Bournemouth have underperformed in terms of the xG metric of 45.82 after scoring just 35 goals from open play. But, they have defended well, allowing 25 open play goals from an xGA of 29.28.

Dean Huijsen and Milos Kerkez return from suspension after missing the FA Cup quarterfinal against Manchester City. However, Enes Unal and Luis Sinisterra remain out injured for Bournemouth.
Bournemouth predicted lineup vs Ipswich
Bournemouth predicted lineup vs Ipswich (4-2-3-1): Arrizabalaga; Smith, Zabarnyi, Huijsen, Kerkez; Cook, Adams; Brooks, Kluivert, Semenyo; Evanilson.
Ipswich Team News
Kieran McKenna’s Ipswich have an uphill challenge to avoid relegation, as they are nine points adrift from safety after suffering defeats in their last four matches. A victory on Wednesday could enhance their survival chances, but they will also need Wolves to lose at home to West Ham.
Ipswich have struggled in front of goal throughout this season, as they have scored just 22 goals from an xG of 24.15.

Liam Delap has been their shining light, netting just under half of their efforts. It would be a major concern that Ipswich have conceded eight goals across their last three, which includes allowing four against Nottingham Forest despite conceding an xGA of just 1.31.
Axel Tuanzebe remains unavailable for Ipswich this week. Meanwhile, Wes Burns, Chiedozie Ogbene, and Sammie Szmodics are unlikely to feature again until at least May.
Ipswich predicted lineup vs Bournemouth
Ipswich predicted lineup vs Bournemouth: (4-2-3-1): Palmer; O’Shea, Greaves, Burgess, Davis; Morsy, Cajuste; Philogene, Hutchinson, Enciso; Delap.
Bet hereBournemouth vs Ipswich Prediction
- Pick: The Draw
- Odds: 5.25 (22Bet)
- Score prediction: Bournemouth 1-1 Ipswich
Bournemouth looked dead on their feet in their FA Cup quarterfinal against Manchester City on Sunday, and that fatigue could impact their chances of bouncing back to winning ways on Wednesday.
Ipswich will need to improve defensively if they are to reignite their survival hopes, but the additional time could ensure that McKenna has come up with a tactical plan.
It could also be worth noting before making a Bournemouth vs Ipswich prediction that seven of the last 16 matches between these sides in Bournemouth have ended in draws.
Bournemouth vs Ipswich Prediction, Betting Tip
- Pick: Both Teams to Score
- Odds: 1.74 (22Bet)
Both teams to score should be an excellent chance at the Vitality Stadium on Wednesday. The home side have scored an average of 1.29 goals per game at the Vitality this term, while they have kept clean sheets in just 21% of their fixtures.
Meanwhile, Ipswich have averaged 1.14 goals per game on the road, and have kept clean sheets in just 7% of their fixtures in the Premier League.

Omari Hutchinson could be an interesting scoring angle after rediscovering his shooting boots during the international break, after netting twice for the England U21s. So far this season, he has accumulated five goal involvements in 27 Premier League outings.
