Ipswich vs Charlton Prediction & Betting Tips

Ipswich vs Charlton Match Preview

Ipswich return to Portman Road looking to keep their momentum after a strong derby win over Norwich. The hosts have been excellent in attack at home and face a Charlton side that remains unpredictable but capable of springing surprises. Both teams have been involved in open games recently, setting up an exciting clash in the Championship midweek schedule.

Ipswich’s Home Form Shines Despite Setbacks

The Tractor Boys bounced back well from their defeat at Middlesbrough with a commanding 3-1 home victory over Norwich. They have now scored at least twice in their last two matches at Portman Road. Earlier, they also edged Portsmouth 2-1, proving their front line remains sharp when playing in front of home fans.

Even their 1-1 away draw at Bristol City showed improvement in resilience compared to early-season losses at Blackburn and Middlesbrough. While clean sheets remain rare, Ipswich’s recent scoring consistency gives them confidence going into this fixture.

Charlton’s Away Form Shows Promise

The Addicks travel with mixed momentum. They earned a point in their 1-1 draw at Derby but lost 2-1 at Preston last time out. Before that, Charlton’s 3-0 home victory over Blackburn and a 1-0 win at Sheffield United reflected a team that can be dangerous when their pressing game clicks.

However, maintaining defensive focus on the road remains a challenge. They have conceded in four of their last five league matches, which could be costly against Ipswich’s attack-heavy setup.

Ipswich vs Charlton Prediction

Ipswich have dominated this fixture in recent years, particularly at home, where their attack has flourished against Charlton’s open defense. The Addicks’ ability to score away suggests they will have moments, but their inconsistency at the back could be exposed once again.

With Ipswich finding rhythm in front of goal and Charlton’s tendency to concede, a high-scoring game looks likely. Over 2.5 goals is a sensible play based on current form and H2H patterns. Ipswich’s superior home record points toward another convincing result.
